An excellent source of iodine, selenium, vitamins A and D, and most significantly, Omega 3.
This guide will not only inform you of what health benefits fish can offer you and your family, but also the most popular fish recipes which have been selected for their incredible flavour, but also ease factor.
Protein, Minerals & Omega 3
White fish, such as cod, sea bass and monkfish, are a good source of low-fat protein and minerals which not only help build a strong, muscular body but also tissues, which are not only present in muscle, but organs and bone too.
Fish contains high levels of Omega 3 essential fatty acids, which offer significant health benefits as the human body cannot produce these fatty acids naturally. The only access we have to them is via foods rich in Omega 3, such as fish.
The types of fish that contain the higher levels of Omega 3 are the greasier forms, for example – mackerel, herring, sardines, salmon, tuna and anchovies.
