Mussels, purchased cooked

Mussels are shellfish, and the figures here describe mussels purchased cooked, from frozen and chilled products. They mainly provide protein, with smaller amounts of fat and carbohydrate, alongside vitamins and minerals. Per 100g, they contain 18g of protein, 2.2g of fat, 1g of salt and 11µg of vitamin B12.

Protein supports the maintenance and repair of body tissues, while vitamin B12 is needed for normal nerve function and red blood cell formation. The salt content is worth noting for people monitoring their salt intake, including any salt added in sauces or during preparation. Full nutrient figures are provided in the tables below.
