Supports Strong Bones
Bones provide support for the body and protection for internal organs while helping improve balance and coordination. They also store minerals, including calcium and magnesium, and several types of blood cells are formed in the bone marrow.
Salmon contains polyunsaturated fatty acids and vitamin D, a nutrient that helps the body use calcium. These fatty acids and vitamin D have been linked to good bone health, which may help reduce the risk of osteoporosis and fractures.
