Looking to boost your protein intake?

Look no further than tuna, a go-to choice for families, fitness enthusiasts and foodies around the world. 

But how much protein does it really pack?

On average, a tin of tuna boasts an impressive 23–27g of protein per 100g, making it one of the best high-protein foods you can add to your diet.

What’s the first food that comes to mind when you hear the word ‘protein’?

Chicken? Understandable. It’s widely regarded as a lean, high-protein staple in many diets, particularly those focused on fitness and muscle building.  

And yet, just one tin of John West Tuna Chunks (per 100g) contains 27g, compared to the 23-25g of protein found in one chicken breast (per 100g).

Tuna isn’t just a great swap for chicken – it’s also an an excellent alternative when compared to other top protein contenders like beef fillet steak grilled (27g per 100g), farmed salmon steamed (23.6g per 100g) , lamb leg chops grilled (28.3g per 100g), and eggs (13.3g per 100g), too. 

Remember to always double check nutritional labels, as protein content can vary by brand and preparation method.

You wouldn’t drive a Formula One car on fumes. 

So, why would we fuel our bodies on nothing but the best?

Choosing the right protein source matters. High-quality protein offers essential nutrients, and tuna fits this bill perfectly. 

Throw in all that versatility, convenience, and mouth-watering flavour, and you have a nutritious and delicious option that can elevate any meal.
