Health profile of Pinton sardines
Sardine is a fatty fish that contains certain active ingredients with interesting health effects, the main one being undoubtedly its content of omega-3 fatty acids. Not to mention the nutrients contained in this fish, such as calcium, selenium, phosphorus, vitamin D and B group vitamins, making it a food that should be included in our diet more often.
A 100 g serving of fresh sardines provides about 160 calories, including almost 25 g of protein. Canned sardines are a little more caloric (210 calories per 100 g serving) and you should obviously avoid consuming the oil in which they are immersed. They are an excellent source of omega-3, the good fats that play a role in the prevention of vascular disease and certain cancers. Sardines also contain: vitamins B3, B12 and D and mineral salts: calcium, phosphorus, iron, selenium, zinc and copper.
According to research, vitamin D in the form of calcitriol has an impact on cell activity. The slightest imbalance in the cell cycle promotes the development of cancer. But the vitamin D in sardine fish helps to fight cell cycle imbalance, and therefore reduces the risk of getting cancer.
