About Clam

Clams are nutrient-packed shellfish popular in cuisines worldwide, particularly in coastal regions such as Italian, Japanese, and American. These bivalve mollusks are an excellent source of lean protein, omega-3 fatty acids, iron, and vitamin B12, which support energy metabolism, brain health, and immune function. Clams also provide selenium and zinc, essential for a healthy immune system, as well as iodine for thyroid function. Low in fat and calories, they are a heart-healthy seafood choice. However, clams can be high in sodium, so individuals monitoring their salt intake should consume them in moderation. Whether steamed, grilled, or incorporated into soups and pasta, clams add a savory, oceanic flavor to meals while delivering key nutrients to support overall health.
