Whether your goal is weight loss, building muscle mass, or simply a well balanced diet – the buzz is all about “high quality protein.”  The best protein sources provide a rich source of high quality omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids. Replacing intake of processed carbs like sugar and bleached flower with these “good fats” is a plus for building muscle and reducing fat. High quality protein also sticks to the ribs better than carbs meaning you won’t be hungry two hours after eating.

There is no better source of protein combined with good fats than wild, North Pacific salmon. A mere 2 oz. serving provides you 14 grams of protein at a mere 100 calories. Only one problem – it tastes too good to stop at 2 ounces. How can you get some? Fish with us in Sitka!
