About Mackarel fish
Mackerel is a nutrient-rich, oily fish commonly found in Mediterranean, Japanese, and Nordic cuisines. Prized for its bold flavor and tender texture, mackerel is an excellent source of high-quality protein and heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids, which support brain function and cardiovascular health. In addition, it delivers essential vitamins such as B12, D, and A, alongside minerals like selenium and potassium. Low in carbohydrates, mackerel can be enjoyed grilled, smoked, or canned for convenience. However, due to its oil content, it is higher in calories compared to leaner seafood options, making portion control important. Additionally, certain species of mackerel may have elevated mercury levels, so consumption should be moderated for vulnerable groups, such as pregnant women. Overall, mackerel is a flavorful and nutritious choice that supports a balanced diet, making it a staple in health-conscious and culturally diverse menus worldwide.
