About Cooked squid
Cooked squid, a staple in Mediterranean and Asian cuisines, is a flavorful and versatile seafood option. It is low in calories yet rich in protein, making it an excellent choice for those seeking lean dietary options. Squid is a good source of essential nutrients like vitamin B12, phosphorus, and selenium, which support energy metabolism, bone health, and immune function. It also contains omega-3 fatty acids, promoting heart and brain health. While squid itself is healthy, its preparation methods matter; grilled or steamed squid retains its benefits, while fried varieties can be higher in fat and calories. Additionally, squid is naturally high in cholesterol, so consumption should be moderated in cholesterol-conscious diets. Enjoyed in dishes such as calamari, soups, or stir-fries, cooked squid is a nutritious and adaptable ingredient that pairs well with various flavors while contributing to a balanced diet.
