Tracking Tip

Salmon gives you protein plus omega-3 fatty acids — a rare combo. Higher in calories than chicken breast because of the healthy fats, but those fats are worth it for heart and brain health.

Common Questions

Is salmon better than chicken for weight loss?

Both are excellent. Chicken breast is leaner (fewer calories per serving), while salmon provides omega-3s you can't easily get elsewhere. Rotate between them — your body benefits from variety.
