Salmon is classified as an oily fish that is high in protein and packed with Omega-3 fatty acid that is an essential polyunsaturated fat that the body cannot make and can only be obtained through foods that are rich with these fats. The oil that is in the salmon has EPA and DHA in ready form and eating it can easily absorb this compound that is beneficial to brain function. Consuming these good fats regularly helps in improving heart health, reduce inflammation and can even combat depression by improving overall mood. Salmon also contains a high level of calcium that promotes healthy bones, niacin, phosphorous, vitamins B6 and B12 and magnesium. Aside from the goodness that you can get from the salmon in this dish, you can also benefit from the leafy greens that are in this dish which are loaded with vitamin C, calcium and fiber that our body needs every day.
