Health benefits of Maple Glazed Salmon Recipe

Salmon is an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, which are crucial for reducing inflammation and promoting cardiovascular health. It is also rich in vitamin D, which helps regulate insulin levels and improve mood, both of which are important for managing PCOS symptoms. Additionally, salmon provides a good amount of B vitamins, particularly B12, which supports energy production and helps maintain healthy nerve function. Including salmon in your diet can help balance hormones, reduce inflammation, and support overall well-being. Grapefruits are rich in folic acid. One grapefruit will give you 8% of your daily needs of folic acid.

Ingredients

1/4 cup ruby red grapefruit juice
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons maple syrup
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons olive oil
4 salmon fillets (4 ounces each)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Instructions

In a small saucepan, bring the grapefruit juice, vinegar, syrup and garlic to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Transfer 2 tablespoons to a small bowl; add oil. Set remaining glaze aside.
