Summary

This smoked salmon product is primarily composed of Atlantic salmon, which is a high-quality source of protein and omega-3 fatty acids, beneficial for heart and brain health. However, the inclusion of sodium lactate as a preservative contributes to its classification as ultra-processed, which limits its score despite the presence of beneficial nutrients. The product's processing level and the use of additives prevent it from achieving a higher rating.
