Lemon sole, flesh only, raw

Lemon sole is a white fish. The figures here describe its raw flesh only, based on frozen and chilled samples. It mainly provides protein, with 17g per 100g, and contains 0.7g of fat. It also provides vitamin B12 at 1µg and selenium at 50µg per 100g.

Protein supports the growth and repair of body tissues. Vitamin B12 contributes to normal red blood cell formation and nervous system function, while selenium supports normal thyroid function. The raw flesh contains little fat, but cooking with butter or oil will increase the fat and energy content. Added salt and sauces can also change its nutritional composition.
