About Mussel
Mussels are nutrient-rich shellfish found in both saltwater and freshwater environments. Packed with high-quality protein, they are a fantastic source of omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart and brain health. They are also abundant in essential vitamins such as B12 and minerals like iron, zinc, and selenium, which contribute to immune function and overall well-being. Mussels are a staple in many cuisines, particularly Mediterranean and coastal European dishes, where they are often steamed, grilled, or incorporated into soups and pasta. Low in fat and calories while offering powerful nutritional benefits, mussels are a healthy addition to most diets. However, individuals with shellfish allergies or sensitivities should avoid them, and monitoring for proper harvesting and sourcing is essential to ensure safety. When prepared well, mussels are a delicious and wholesome option for those looking to enjoy seafood responsibly.
