Nutritional Value
Zephyros IKE Mussel Farms - Exports & Collaborations - Pieria

 

Mussels are not just a delicious seafood delicacy, but also an extremely nutritious food with significant health benefits. They are rich in protein, vitamins and trace elements, making them an ideal choice for a balanced diet.

Rich in protein & essential amino acids

Mussels are a source of high biological value proteins, containing all the essential amino acids. A 85 gram serving of mussels offers approximately 20-22 grams of protein, covering up to 40% of the daily recommended intake. This makes them an ideal food for people following a low-fat diet or for those looking for natural sources of energy.

Natural source of vitamins and minerals

Mussels are rich in:

  • B complex vitamins (B12, B1, B2), which enhance the function of the nervous system and metabolism.
  • Vitamin A and D, essential for healthy skin, vision and bones.
  • Vitamin C, known for its antioxidant and strengthening properties.
  • Calcium, phosphorus and iron, which contribute to maintaining strong bones and fighting anemia.
  • Manganese and selenium, elements with strong antioxidant activity that protect cells from oxidative stress.
 
 
 

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
   
     
     
     
 

Omega-3 Fats & Cardiovascular Health

Mussels naturally contain omega-3 fatty acids (EPA & DHA), which help regulate cholesterol, enhance cardiovascular function and have anti-inflammatory effects.

Light & low-calorie food

Despite their nutritional value, mussels are low in fat and calories. One serving contains just 70-80 calories, making them ideal for those who want a healthy and light meal without compromising on taste.

The natural purity of the waters of Pieria and the responsible cultivation of Mussel Farms Zephyros IKE ensure products with high biological value and excellent taste. It is no coincidence that mussels are considered the “superfood” of the sea, thanks to their multiple benefits for the body.
