Seafood Superfoods.

Seafood Superfoods. 

By Julian Rosenstein APD

One of our favourite parts of Christmas is seafood! Fish and shellfish are nutrition powerhouses and have an incredible array of heart, brain and eye health benefits.

Seafood has a great nutrition profile:

• High in protein.
• Low in saturated fat.
• Excellent source of omega-3s
• Rich source of vitamins A, D and B-complex.
• Excellent source of minerals – zinc, iodine, selenium and iron.

Did you know that just 4 oysters (15g each) provides 100% of the recommended daily intake of zinc for adults.
