Approximate values — varies by variety, season, and preparation method.
Each condition below has a complete food-based healing plan. Sardine fits into the eat-list of these conditions.
Eat tinned (with bones for calcium) on toast. Fresh grilled with lemon. Add to salads. Mash with avocado.
High purine content — limit if you have gout. Allergies possible. Tinned sardines may have added salt.
