About Marlin

Marlin is a firm, flavorful fish prized in various cuisines, particularly in Hawaiian, Japanese, and Mediterranean dishes. This fish is a rich source of high-quality protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential vitamins like B12 and D6, which support heart health, brain function, and energy production. It also contains selenium, a powerful antioxidant that aids in boosting immunity and protecting cells from damage. Marlin is leaner compared to some oily fish but still provides healthy fats beneficial for overall health. However, due to its position as a top predator in the ocean, marlin may accumulate mercury, so it’s advisable to consume it in moderation, especially for pregnant women and young children. Its firm texture makes it ideal for grilling, smoking, or as a key ingredient in poke bowls and sashimi. Marlin is a flavorful and nutritious addition to a balanced diet when eaten responsibly.
