Questions about salmon
Four questions chosen by the facts above, so every food answers differently.
How many calories are in a portion of salmon?
A typical portion (140 g, one fillet) gives 258 kcal. Per 100 g the figure is 184 kcal.
Is salmon high in chloride?
Yes. Salmon, smoked has 1480 mg chloride per 100 g, 185 % of the NRV, above the 30 % threshold for a “high in” claim.
Which vitamins and minerals does salmon have most of?
By share of the daily reference intake: chloride (1480 mg, 185 %), vitamin D (0.0089 mg, 178 %) and vitamin B12 (0.0032 mg, 128 %) per 100 g.
Is salmon a good source of protein?
Salmon, smoked has 22.8 g protein per 100 g, 50 % of the energy, which meets the UK threshold for “high protein”.
How these numbers were made
Every figure comes from the UK Composition of Foods Integrated Dataset (CoFID), 2021 edition, record 16-412, Salmon, smoked, published by Public Health England under the Open Government Licence v3.0. Main data references: DH, Nutrient analysis of fish and fish products, 2013. Values are per 100 g of the edible part; a fillet is 140 g, one fillet, the usual UK portion for fish and seafood. Reference intakes follow Regulation (EU) 1169/2011 Annex XIII as retained in GB law; “source of”, “high in” and “low” follow Regulation (EC) 1924/2006, assessed per 100 g. Function lines are the authorised wording from the GB register of nutrition and health claims, credited to the nutrient. Energy is rounded to the whole kcal and kJ; other amounts to one decimal, or two below 1. A trace is shown as “trace” and never gets a figure or a badge; a nutrient never analysed is left off the page. We start from the dataset’s 2,887 records and keep 2,322: records weighed with bone, shell or skin, alcoholic drinks, infant foods, brand-named products, records with fewer than eight measured vitamins and minerals and near-identical variants are left out. Group context uses the 170 fish and seafood kept from the dataset; a rank counts only the foods with a measured figure for that nutrient. The dataset's sample note is not shown on the page (its wording trips the site's checks). Food images are illustrations from Ingredient Atlas, released under CC0; they show the food, not the measured sample. Checked 5 October 2026. Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0.
