Omega-3s support heart health, reduce inflammation, and aid brain function. Arctic Char is also lower in mercury compared to many other fish, making it a safer seafood choice. It is relatively low in saturated fat and provides beneficial fats for a balanced diet. Sustainably farmed Arctic Char is widely available, offering both health benefits and environmental responsibility.
