Healthy Low-Fat Scallop Recipes for Busy Lives

Continuing our healthy living journey with low-fat and healthy dishes you can make at home.

Scallops are widely considered one of the healthiest seafood. Made of 80% protein and with a low-fat content, they can help you feel fuller and are rich in vitamins and minerals.

They are also a great source of antioxidants. These nutrients protect your body against cell damage linked with a range of chronic diseases. 

In traditional East Asian medicine, scallops are used as a treatment for conditions like diabetes and indigestion. Modern research also studies scallop proteins for their potential use in antitumor drugs and cancer treatments.
