Whiting, flesh only, raw

Whiting is a white fish, and these figures describe its raw flesh only. It mainly provides protein, with small amounts of fat, alongside minerals including iodine and selenium. Per 100g, it contains 19g of protein, 0.7g of fat, 0.1g of saturated fat and 67µg of iodine. The data are for the fish itself, without added ingredients.

Protein is needed for the growth and repair of body tissues. Iodine supports the production of thyroid hormones, which help regulate metabolism. The low fat and saturated fat content may be relevant to people monitoring their intake, although cooking with added fats or sauces changes the nutritional content of the finished dish.
