Sea bream is a fish rich in proteins, selenium, phosphorus, potassium, and vitamin B12, B6, D, and niacin.
Due to its low fat content (1 g per 100 g), it is a lean fish with a high content of proteins of great biological value. Its meat is a source of potassium and has a high content of phosphorus and selenium.
A serving of sea bream covers 71% of the recommended selenium intake for men aged 20 to 39 with moderate physical activity and 90% for women of the same age.
Among the B vitamins, special mention should be made of B12, niacin or vitamin B3, and vitamin B6. Vitamin B12 is present in an amount equivalent to that of meats, eggs, and cheeses, foods of animal origin and the exclusive natural source of this nutrient.
Regarding fat-soluble vitamins, it is a source of vitamin D. Among the functions of the latter, its contribution to maintaining bones in normal conditions stands out.
