Ham, premium

Premium ham is a processed meat made from pork. The figures here describe loose and prepacked ham with no added water, including honey-glazed and smoked varieties. It mainly provides protein, with some fat and very little carbohydrate. Per 100g, it contains 21g of protein, 5g of fat, 1.7g of saturated fat and 2.6g of salt.

Protein supports the growth and repair of body tissues and helps maintain muscle. The salt content is worth noting for people monitoring their salt intake, as eating too much salt can raise blood pressure. Ham also contributes saturated fat to the diet. Full nutrient figures are provided in the tables below.

About these figures

Values are per 100g of the food as described (10 samples, 7 brands; loose and prepacked including honey glazed and smoked ham. No added water). "Trace" means only a very small amount was found. Nutrients that were not measured are not shown. Salt is calculated from sodium.

These figures come from an older part of the dataset that is no longer updated. Original source: LGC, Nutrient analysis of foods important in elderly people, 1994.
