Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Atlantic Horse Mackerel

  • Metabolic Effect: Mackerel helps you stay full for a long time and supports muscle development thanks to its high protein content. It is also rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which protect heart health.
  • Consumption Recommendation: It is healthiest to cook mackerel in the oven, grill or steam. Avoid frying, as this method increases calorie and fat content. You can consume it with a salad with plenty of greens.
  • Things to Consider: Since mackerel is smaller in size than other fish, its bones should be cleaned carefully. Consuming it 2-3 times a week is ideal to support omega-3 intake.
  • Exercise Equivalent: It is enough to walk at a moderate pace for about 30 minutes to burn the calories you get from 100 grams of mackerel.
