Ham

Ham is a processed meat made from pork. The figures here cover loose and prepacked ham with added water, including honey roast and smoked varieties. Per 100g, it provides 18g of protein, 3.3g of fat and 2g of salt, with an energy content of 451 kJ. It also supplies several B vitamins and minerals, including phosphorus and zinc.

Protein is needed for the growth and repair of body tissues. B vitamins help the body release energy from food, while zinc supports normal immune function. The salt content is worth noting for people monitoring their salt intake, and amounts can vary between products. Full nutrient figures are shown in the tables below.
