What Are the Nutritional Benefits of Abalone?
Disease description:
I don’t like eating eggs or drinking milk, and I also consume relatively little meat. During a recent hospital visit, I was diagnosed with malnutrition—specifically, protein deficiency. I’ve heard that abalone is rich in protein. What are the nutritional benefits of abalone?

Hello, abalone is highly nutritious, containing over 20 amino acids. Per 100 g of fresh abalone meat, it provides 23.4 g of protein, 3.4 g of fat, 32 mg of calcium, 3.0 mg of iron, as well as substantial amounts of iodine, zinc, phosphorus, and vitamins A, D, and B₁. It is rich in globulin, and its meat also contains a compound known as “abalone素” (abalone factor), which can disrupt metabolic substances essential for cancer cell survival. I hope this information is helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
