Solid White Albacore Tuna in Water is a shelf-stable fish product that offers a convenient source of lean protein with minimal added ingredients.
The nutrition facts reveal 70 calories per serving, making it low-calorie, but high in sodium at 180mg, which can be concerning for those monitoring their intake. It provides 16 grams of protein and no carbohydrates, fats, or sugars, aligning with a keto-friendly diet. The product is not inherently unhealthy, though the sodium content may limit its regular consumption for some individuals.
The tuna is minimally processed, as it consists primarily of tuna, water, and salt, but the added salt makes it slightly more processed than a whole, unprocessed food item. While artificial flavors or colors are absent, the reliance on salt for preservation leans toward semi-processed rather than truly whole or minimally processed.
For those looking to reduce sodium intake, fresh or canned tuna without added salts could be a healthier alternative.
