Shark, raw

Shark is a fish eaten for its flesh. The figures here describe raw shark, before cooking. Per 100g, it provides 23g of protein and 1.1g of fat, including 0.2g of saturated fat. It also contains 5µg of vitamin B12. Protein is its main energy-providing nutrient.

Protein supports the maintenance and repair of body tissues, while vitamin B12 is needed for normal nerve function and red blood cell formation. The saturated fat content is low. Shark can contain relatively high levels of mercury, which is relevant to food safety guidance for pregnant women and children. Full nutrient figures are provided in the tables below.
