About Peixe
Peixe, Portuguese for "fish," refers to a staple protein widely enjoyed in cuisines around the world, particularly in Mediterranean, Brazilian, and coastal European dishes. Rich in high-quality protein, peixe is an excellent source of essential nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin D, and selenium, which support heart health, brain function, and immune system performance. Common varieties include cod, sardines, tuna, and salmon, each offering unique flavors and nutritional profiles. Lean fishes like cod are low in fat and calories, while fatty options like salmon are prized for their omega-3 content. Peixe is versatile, often grilled, baked, or stewed with spices and fresh vegetables for a wholesome meal. However, some preparations—such as deep-fried fish or heavily salted options—can increase calories, sodium, or unhealthy fats. Choosing fresh peixe and mindful preparation methods can maximize its health benefits within a balanced diet.
