About Sockeye salmon

Sockeye salmon is a nutrient-rich fish highly valued for its vibrant red-orange flesh and robust flavor. Native to the northern Pacific Ocean and river systems, this salmon is a staple in cuisines such as Pacific Northwest, Japanese, and Alaskan. Packed with high-quality protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential vitamins like B12 and D, sockeye salmon supports heart health, brain function, and overall cell repair. It's also rich in antioxidants, such as astaxanthin, which contributes to its striking color and offers anti-inflammatory benefits. Lower in fat compared to other salmon varieties, sockeye is an excellent option for lean protein. However, due to its natural sodium content, individuals monitoring salt intake may want to balance portion sizes. Whether grilled, baked, or smoked, sockeye salmon is a flavorful and nutritious choice for a balanced diet.
