Sardine Nutrition: Protein, Omega-3, Calcium
A 100g tin of sardines provides roughly 25g of protein, substantial omega-3 (EPA/DHA), vitamin D and B12, and - if you eat the soft bones - around a third of daily calcium. Sardines are also among the lowest-mercury fish available, which is why they appear on the FDA's 'Best Choices' list for frequent eating. No disease claims are made on this site; nutrition figures are composition facts, and individual needs vary.
