About Clam meat

Clam meat, harvested from a variety of clam species, is a seafood staple known for its distinctive briny flavor and tender texture. Rich in protein and essential nutrients, clams are an excellent source of vitamin B12, iron, zinc, and omega-3 fatty acids, contributing to brain health, immune function, and cardiovascular wellness. They are also low in fat and calories, making them ideal for lean diets. Commonly featured in Mediterranean, Asian, and coastal cuisines, clam meat is a versatile ingredient used in dishes like chowders, pastas, and stir-fries. However, clams can contain high levels of sodium, and individuals who are prone to sensitivities may need to monitor their consumption. Additionally, sourcing clams sustainably ensures environmental impact is minimized. When cooked properly, clam meat offers both a delicious and nutrient-dense addition to a balanced diet.
