Ham is a cured and often smoked pork product used widely in sandwiches, breakfasts and cooked dishes; it is commonly sold sliced as cold cuts or cooked as a joint. It is known for its salty, savory flavor and ease of use in many cuisines. As a protein-forward ingredient, Ham provides about 19g of protein per 100g and supplies several B‑vitamins and trace minerals that support energy metabolism. It is also relatively high in sodium because of the curing and smoking process, so portion and salt intake are worth watching. Nutritionally, ham delivers high-quality amino acids and useful micronutrients such as B‑vitamins and selenium, making it a convenient protein source. Because it is a processed meat, choosing lower‑salt or uncured varieties and integrating more fresh lean poultry or roasted pork can help reduce sodium and saturated fat intake.
