Tuna vs Salmon: Protein, Omega-3, Fat and Calories
Tuna and salmon are two very different ways to get protein. Per 100 grams cooked, yellowfin tuna has roughly 29 grams of protein and 130 calories, while Atlantic salmon is closer to 22 grams and 200–210 calories. Salmon's advantage shows up elsewhere: it provides far more EPA and DHA. Mercury in tuna also depends heavily on the species.
