3 Reasons Why Fish are Healthy For You

Fish food dinner lemon rice

Substituting fish for meat is one of the best dietary changes you can make for your family. Downgrade meat as a daily main course and use it instead as an ingredient in other dishes, a way to enhance the flavor and nutrition of stir fry, pasta, or casseroles. Upgrade fish as the centerpiece several meals a week, as a tuna “steak” or tuna salad. Fish is a top-of-the-line nutrient-dense food. It’s low in fat and high in many good things.

  2. Fish is a good source of vitamin B-12.
