Sushi is a traditional Japanese dish that features vinegared rice combined with various ingredients, such as raw or cooked seafood, vegetables, and occasionally tropical fruits. Common types include maki rolls, nigiri, and sashimi. Rich in lean protein from fish like tuna, salmon, or mackerel, sushi offers heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids. Seaweed, often used in sushi rolls, provides essential vitamins and minerals like iodine and calcium. Sushi is typically low in calories, making it a light and nutrient-dense option. However, some varieties, like tempura rolls or those with creamy sauces, may be higher in fat and sodium. White rice used in sushi may have a high glycemic index, affecting blood sugar levels. For a healthier option, choose rolls with brown rice, avoid heavy sauces, and pair sushi with fresh vegetables or miso soup for added nutrients. Sushi embodies the balance of taste and health inherent in Japanese cuisine.
