Why scallops are so nutritious…

If you’re unfamiliar with scallops, they’re the meaty white part found in clams. But they’re not just delicious to eat, they’re also really nutritious.

2 large (or 5 small) scallops (which is approximately 30 grams) only have 26 calories, but they have 6.7 mcg (or 10% of your daily value) of selenium, which has huge antioxidant benefits. That same amount of scallops also contains 8% of your daily value of vitamin B12.
