Episode 2457:

Riley Pearce of FreeFormFitness.ca heralds the sardine as an unsung superfood, packed with essential nutrients despite its modest size and cost. Sardines offer a substantial protein content, beneficial fats without carbohydrates, and an impressive array of vitamins and minerals such as vitamin B12, selenium, phosphorus, omega-3 fatty acids, and vitamin D. These components contribute to muscle growth, tissue repair, heart health, bone strength, and brain function, making sardines a nutritional powerhouse accessible to all.

Quotes to ponder:

"Sardines are one of the best food sources out there because they provide us with more than 40% of our daily recommended value of critical nutrients."

"The fact that you get 87% of your daily selenium from this tiny fish makes sardines a nutritional hero."
