Canned clams provide tons and tons of nutrients. Omega 3's which can lower heart disease, protein which is a necessary nutrient for maintaining your lean muscle mass and support strong immune system. Clams also contain potassium, which is important in regulating blood preasure. I decided also to throw in some peas this time to not only add color but to provide other valuable nutrients. Peas contain omega 3's which are essential to our bodies. Some of the key benifits of Omega 3's are aiding in the prevention of inflamatory disease like heart disease or arthritis. It also helps improve cholesterol levels, and aids in reducing joint tenderness adn stiffness associated with arthritis.
