Phosphorus is an essential component to our body’s energy metabolism, most of the body’s phosphate is found in our bones where it provides structural support. It also plays a role in switching our genes on and off to control protein production.
Potassium is required for normal functioning of all cells, it has various roles including the regulation of heartbeat and fluid balance of the body. Some studies have shown potassium to have blood pressure lowering effects.
Trout contains almost half of the reference value for selenium. Selenium plays a role in the creation of thyroid hormones - the thyroid is the gland responsible for our metabolic rate and helps determine how many calories we burn each day.
