Should we all be eating more fatty fish?<\/em><\/p>\n

A bevy of official sources recommends that you eat oily fish at least once a week. It\u2019s a terrific\u00a0and underutilized protein source that can add healthy variety to any diet. Oily fish are one of the world\u2019s best sources of Omega-3 fatty acids, which are linked to a hilariously large number of health benefits. They are also a rare natural food source of Vitamin D, which, like Omega-3, has been the subject of much study among Type 1 diabetes researchers for its potential in slowing the progression of the disease<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Finally, it\u2019s a protein source you can feel very good about. While overfishing threatens seafood stocks all around the world, it is largely the little fatty fish that are considered the most sustainable and environmentally friendly dining choices. Sardines, anchovies, and herring thrive in abundance throughout the world\u2019s oceans, and many more can be sustainably harvested than there is currently demand for. They also tend to be less expensive, but for the gourmands among us, there\u2019s also an entire world of fancy tinned seafood delicacies<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Experts tend to refer to this category as \u201coily fish.\u201d \u201cOily\u201d is not the term I would have chosen \u2013 why not \u201crich\u201d or \u201clustrous\u201d or just plain \u201cfatty?\u201d Oily invariably conjures up a greasy tin of sardines, but the word refers just as much to the clean, ethereal fat of ahi tuna, to the buttery texture of the freshest freshwater trout, and to the firm, steak-like flesh of a swordfish. There is one health warning to pay attention to \u2013 the larger fish, such as king mackerel, tend to have high levels of mercury, and shouldn\u2019t be consumed to excess.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve been pushing the idea for years<\/a>, and we\u2019re back at it today.<\/p>\n
