Delicious Salmon In A Lemon Sauce

Salmon is delicious and very nutritious. It is great for your health because of its high concentration of omega 3 fatty acids. Below is a great recipe for salmon in a lemon sauce.

Fresh and salt water

A salmon is born in fresh water and then it travels to the ocean, eventually returning to the river to spawn. It is a fish with a reasonable amount of fat and it is high in protein, vitamins and minerals, including potassium, selenium and vitamin B12. The high concentration of omega-3 fatty acids helps to lower cholesterol and triglycerides.

Along with other health benefits, salmon increases blood flow and prevents blood clots from forming. This fish prevents various diseases such as Alzheimer’s, multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis.

Thanks to its high nutrient content, salmon can help combat many ailments and everyday conditions such as asthma, depression, diabetes, high blood pressure and macular degeneration (eye disease).
