Lobster Fact versus Fiction

Typically, people think of crustaceans as high cholesterol foods. However, they also have a high nutritional value.  lobster is a lean protein source — it packs a lot of protein and minimal fat.  Lobsters are also an exceptional source of the trace elements copper and selenium.  While copper is involved in energy and DNA production, selenium acts as an anticancer agent and may protect against a number of chronic degenerative diseases.

Additionally lobster provides more protein per serving than the other crustaceans, they are all protein-rich foods. In fact, they all pack higher protein content than fin fish such as tuna, grouper and sword fish.
