Sardine is also the cheapest fish, but also healthy, containing protein, good fats, calcium and much less mercury, unlike other fish.
In addition, being a good source of minerals, this fish is also recommended for detox, says Dr. Ruxandra Pleșea, nutritionist.
Dr. Pleșea: “Sardine, a “detox” product, cheap and good”
“Why is the sardine the healthiest fish these days?
1. It contains omega-3 fats in high canteens, hard to find in our industrialized food and which have an anti-inflammatory role.
2. It is very rich in calcium, easily absorbed because it is in a good ratio with phosphorus and other minerals. This is what happens when we eat fish with bones.
3. Contains much less methylmercury than other fish rich in omega-3, large fish such as tuna, swordfish, salmon, crustaceans.
4. It is an excellent source of protein.
5. Their fishing is done through environmentally sustainable methods.
6. They are cheap/cheap and good.
7. It is a good source of vitamin D and vitamin B12, copper.
8. It is very rich in selenium and in cofactors that favor its absorption, and the fact that it has a low mercury content recommends sardine as a “detox” product (when there is a deficiency of selenium and an increased intake of methylmercury, the detoxification pathways are blocked).
Sardine, rich in protein and fat, suppresses appetite and gives long-term satiety
9. Being rich in protein and fat, sardines cut the appetite, give long-term satiety. Some studies link sardines to the regulation of leptin (the satiety hormone).
Sardines are eaten prepared on the grill with salads, with pasta or in the oven with baked potatoes and baked tomatoes, but also canned (BPA-Free) when quickly put on crackers, on bell peppers or in salads.
Never eat them fried in palm oil (reused a thousand times)”, explained Dr. Ruxandra Pleșea, nutritionist.
