About Crabmeat

Crabmeat is a flavorful, protein-rich seafood harvested from crabs, popular in cuisines worldwide, including American, Asian, and Mediterranean dishes. It is low in fat and calories but packed with essential nutrients like vitamin B12, zinc, phosphorus, and omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart health, brain function, and immune system strength. Crabmeat provides high-quality protein, crucial for muscle repair and overall health. While fresh crabmeat is highly nutritious, canned or processed versions may contain added sodium. Its delicate, slightly sweet flavor makes it a versatile ingredient for dishes like crab cakes, soups, salads, and stir-fries. Despite its health benefits, it is important to consume crabmeat in moderation, as it can sometimes be high in cholesterol, and individuals with shellfish allergies should avoid it altogether. When enjoyed responsibly, crabmeat is a nutrient-dense addition to a balanced diet.
