Atún, or tuna, is a widely consumed fish known for its versatility in cuisines around the world, especially Mediterranean, Japanese, and Latin American dishes. It is rich in high-quality protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential vitamins like B12 and D. These nutrients contribute to heart health, brain function, and muscle maintenance. Tuna is also low in saturated fat, making it a lean option for those seeking healthy protein sources. However, certain types, like albacore, may contain higher mercury levels, so moderate consumption is recommended, especially for pregnant individuals or young children. Fresh tuna can be enjoyed raw in sushi or sashimi, grilled in steaks, or canned for salads, sandwiches, and casseroles. Its rich flavor and nutritional profile make it a favorite in health-conscious diets, though balance and sustainable sourcing are key when adding atún to your meals.
