Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Fish

  • Metabolic Effect: Fish contains high-quality protein and omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart health and improve brain functions. Its low carbohydrate content helps to keep blood sugar levels balanced.
  • Consumption Recommendation: Consuming fish at least twice a week ensures that you get enough omega-3 fatty acids. Baking, grilling, or steaming methods offer a healthier option by reducing fat intake. Consuming it with plenty of greens and salad increases vitamin and mineral intake.
  • Things to Consider: Some types of fish may contain high amounts of mercury. Pregnant women and children, in particular, should limit the consumption of large fish such as tuna. Small fish and fatty fish such as salmon are a safer option.
  • Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories you get from fish, it may be enough to walk at a light pace for about 15 minutes. This helps you maintain your energy balance by increasing your daily activity level.
