Salmon鮭魚
Signature ingredient: Vitamin B12 — A-grade evidence (B12 Deficiency Anemia, ~133% of the studied dose per serving)
Standard nutrients per USDA FoodData Central · phytochemicals (lutein / K2 / sulforaphane etc.) are literature estimates, varying by variety and processing
S / A … ingredient evidence tier (tap for the claim) | bar = how much of the studied dose one serving of Salmon gives you
Meaningful intake one serving delivers a real fraction of the studied dose
Vitamin B12
3.2ug · 133% DV · Excellent source
A B12 Deficiency Anemia →
＋ Pernicious Anemia A・Neuropathy B
≈ 133% of studied dose
Vitamin D
600iu · 75% DV · Wild vs. farmed varies widely; sunlight synthesis also possible
B Osteoporosis →
＋ Pregnancy A・Immune Function B
≈ 60% of studied dose
Omega-3 / Fish Oil
1800mg · Major food source of EPA+DHA
C Cardiovascular Disease Disputed →
＋ Arthritis B・Cholesterol B
≈ 180% of studied dose
Trace contribution far below the studied dose — not a therapeutic source

＋ Premenstrual Syndrome B・Homocysteine D
≈ 2% of studied dose

Why this page doesn't claim "Salmon works"
Whole foods almost never have RCTs — the evidence sits on the ingredients. So this page does one honest thing: it lists which graded ingredients Salmon contains, how much, and how far that is from the studied dose. It makes no efficacy claim about Salmon itself.
Bottom line: Salmon's strengths are vitamin B12, selenium, and vitamin D (meaningful amounts); the omega-3 heart benefit most people assume is rated as mixed evidence by the engine. Astaxanthin and B6 are only trace amounts.
