Yes, it is a convenient, protein-rich food that can fit into a balanced diet. Tuna also contains omega-3 fats, but its mercury content makes variety important rather than relying on it every day.
It is better not to eat tuna every day. Mercury levels vary by tuna species, so alternating it with other seafood and protein foods helps limit repeated exposure.
Transfer leftover tuna to a covered container, refrigerate it promptly, and use it within 3–4 days. Don’t leave it in an opened can, and discard it if its smell, appearance, or texture seems unusual.
Tuna can be eaten during pregnancy, but the amount should follow guidance for the tuna species and local mercury recommendations. If the species in Fide’s product is unclear, ask your healthcare professional how much is appropriate for you.
No, draining is optional. Use it as packaged to keep its moisture and flavor, or drain off excess oil if you want a drier filling for a sandwich or salad.
Yes, canned tuna is already cooked and can be eaten once the can is opened. Add it directly to a salad or sandwich, or stir it into a hot dish near the end of cooking.
The main difference is the amount of oil in the product: Fide’s variety is sold as low-oil tuna. Oil also affects moisture and flavor, so check the package for the exact ingredients and preparation details.
Use Fide low-oil tuna in sandwiches, pasta, salads, or tuna melts. For a warm dish, stir it in near the end so it heats through without becoming dry.
Keep the unopened can in a cool, dry cupboard away from direct sunlight. Don’t use a can that is swollen, leaking, badly rusted, or deeply dented.
No, an unopened can does not need refrigeration; a cool, dry cupboard is suitable. Refrigerate any leftovers promptly after opening, in a covered container.

Tuna (low oil, Fide brand) is a convenient preserved tuna product made with less oil than standard oil-packed varieties. It has a savoury, mildly marine flavour and soft flakes that break apart easily.
It works well in sandwiches, salads, pasta or a quick lunch bowl, often paired with lemon, herbs and crisp vegetables. Tuna is naturally protein-rich, and this version is relatively low in fat: it provides 25.5 g of protein per 100 g. Drain it before serving if you want a lighter result, or add it to beans or leafy greens for a more substantial meal.
Very high
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
