In addition to being a good source of protein, Lambi also supplies a host of other vitamins and minerals. A 3-ounce serving contains 90 micrograms of folate, which is about 23 percent of the 400 micrograms you need each day. Folate can help prevent certain birth defects.Â
The same portion of Lambi provides 3.24 milligrammes of vitamin E. That’s 22 percent of the 15 milligrammes you need on a daily basis. Vitamin E protects you from cell damage that can contribute to heart disease and cancer. Lambi also supplies small amounts of iron, potassium and vitamin B12.
