About Blue mackarel

Blue Mackerel, a small, oily fish found in the temperate waters of the Pacific and Indian Oceans, is a nutritional powerhouse highly valued in cuisines such as Japanese, Mediterranean, and Korean. It is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, essential for heart health, brain function, and reducing inflammation. Packed with high-quality protein, Blue Mackerel supports muscle repair and overall growth, while its abundance of vitamins B12 and D, along with selenium, promotes energy production, bone health, and immune system strength. Although it is a healthy option, its oily nature results in higher calorie and fat content, so moderation is key. Known for its bold, savory flavor, this fish is commonly grilled, smoked, or preserved in canned form. Its sustainable nature adds environmental benefits, making it an excellent choice for both health-conscious and eco-friendly eating.
