There are often concerns raised about the nutrition content of canned sardines and mackerel, compared to fresh sardines and mackerel, with some people preferring fresh, while others are fans of cans.<\/p>\n
This question sparked a research study by researchers Muhammad Ezzudin, R, Lim X.X, Uthumporn, U, Shariffa N.Y and Liew, C.L from the School of Industrial Technology, Universiti Sains Malaysia. They analysed and compared the nutritional value and presence of food additives and preservatives in canned Ayam<\/span> Brand\u00a0<\/span>Sardines in Tomato Sauce, and canned Ayam<\/span> Brand<\/span>\u00a0Mackerel in Tomato Sauce with fresh and home-cooked sardines and mackerel. The findings in their paper Comparison of Nutritional Composition, Chemical Preservatives, and Glutamic Acid Content of Canned Food with Freshly Cooked and Home Cooked Products, published in the Food Research Journal are surprising, and positive towards the benefits of canned food.<\/p>\n The conclusion of their study on the nutrition and lack of additives and preservatives in Ayam<\/span> Brand<\/span>\u00a0Sardines in Tomato Sauce and Ayam<\/span> Brand<\/span>\u00a0Mackerel in Tomato Sauce as \u201cit is safe to consume canned food products which greatly representing the fresh and home-cooked foods without compromising with the nutritional values\u201d.<\/p>\n The study by Muhammad Ezzudin et al.,<\/em> (2021) confirm the wisdom of elders who have been consuming Ayam<\/span> Brand<\/span>™ Sardines and Mackerel for decades for the high Omega-3, calcium, and protein. The study findings showed that the canned products had higher content of these beneficial compounds compared to fresh cooked!<\/p>\n Why and How Do Ayam<\/span> Brand<\/span>\u00a0Sardines and Mackerel Outperform Fresh?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n As with all Ayam<\/span> Brand<\/span>\u00a0products, these have no added mono-sodium glutamate MSG, allowing the natural flavor of quality sardines and mackerel to be savored.<\/p>\n Nutritional Benefit \u2013 Omega 3<\/strong><\/p>\n Sardines and mackerel are an excellent source of natural Omega-3. Omega-3 is an essential fatty acid that we must ingest because the body does not synthesize them but requires them for good health. Among the health benefits of Omega-3 are promoting brain growth, reducing age-related mental decline and Alzheimer\u2019s Disease as well as reducing risk factors for heart diseases. In addition, sardines and mackerel also provide the body with other essential nutrients such as minerals and Vitamins B.<\/p>\n The findings from the study support the quality, convenience, ease and nutritional content of canned sardines and mackerel. Ayam<\/span> Brand<\/span>\u00a0Sardines in Tomato Sauce was shown to have 7.1X more omega-3 compared to home-cooked locally caught fresh sardines. Ayam<\/span> Brand<\/span>™ Mackerel in Tomato Sauce contains a whopping 7.6X more omega-3 compared to an equivalent serving of home-cooked locally caught mackerel. People who need more omega-3 should consider adding quality canned sardines and mackerel to their diet for the omega-3 benefits.<\/p>\n Nutritional Benefit – Protein<\/strong><\/p>\n Protein is an important building block of bones, muscles, cartilage\u00a0and skin. Hair and nails are comprised mostly of protein. Our bodies use protein to build and repair tissue, oxygenate blood, make the enzymes that aid digestion, make new cell and body chemicals and to regulate our hormones. Getting sufficient protein daily is essential to our health.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/media.pamper.my\/2022\/09\/Ayam-Brand-Sardines-in-Tomato-Sauce-or-Mackerel-in-Tomato-Sauce-range-for-a-convenient-and-tasty-way-to-get-more-healthy-fish-into-your-diet-300x300.jpg\")
<\/strong>Quality is at the core of all Ayam<\/span> Brand<\/span>\u00a0products. Ayam<\/span> Brand\u00a0<\/span>Sardines are exclusively of the Sardinops or Genus Sardina species from the North-Western and Eastern Pacific waters, Southern waters of the Indian Ocean and North-Western Atlantic waters. Mackerel are exclusively of the Scomber species, caught mainly in the North Atlantic Ocean, North-western Pacific and Eastern Pacific waters. Sardines and mackerel living in extreme cold conditions are fattier, juicier and richer in Omega 3. These prime fish are quickly canned using the brand<\/span>\u2019s innovative and proprietary sterilisation and vacuum technology to seal in the nutrients and flavour. Without trapped air, there is no opportunity for bacterial growth doing away with the need for preservatives.<\/p>\n
