Is Crab a healthy Meat?
If you’re sick of the same old chicken every night and want to spice things up a bit, you might be thinking of different proteins to try instead! I’m such a fan of seafood because of its health benefits, tender and flaky texture and amazing flavor, so why not give it a whirl? Crab, in particular, has a variety of health benefits and you’re going to love love LOVE it in this crab and avocado salad. Here’s what makes it so nutritious:
- Healthy Bones and Teeth: Crab contains phosphorous which is vital in the maintenance of bones and teeth.
- Heart Healthy: Full of omega 3 fatty acids, crab can help balance cholesterol and is also anti-inflammatory.
- Detoxify your Body: Skip the detox supplements and replace them with a healthy helping of crab meat! The phosphorous will improve kidney function which helps eliminate toxins from your body.

Should I use real Crab or imitation to make Healthy Crab Salad?
I’m the first one to encourage your creativity when you are following a recipe. Some ingredients can be swapped around and switched up, but something you don’t want to mess with in this recipe is the crab itself! Real crab has the texture, flavor, and health benefits that make this recipe what it is, so I wouldn’t recommend using imitation in this keto crab salad recipe.
