Atlantic salmon is one of the best sources of Omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3 plays an important role in promoting great overall health, however since our bodies cannot produce these fatty acids naturally, we must look to source these from what we eat.
There are three types of Omega-3 – those from plant sources (known as ALA) and those from marine sources (called EPA and DHA). Marine Omega-3s provide wide-ranging healthy benefits for our body, such as maintaining a healthy heart.
‘Atlantic salmon is frequently referred to as a superfood – one of the richest natural sources of Omega-3 as well as protein, Vitamin B, selenium and magnesium. Tassal Salmon is always front and centre on the meal plans I develop for my clients.
A little trick when it comes to getting the most Omega-3 from your salmon – eat the skin! You’ll find much of the Omega-3 fatty acids here.’ – Susie Burrell, Leading Dietitian and Tassal Brand Ambassador.
Incorporating Tassal Atlantic Salmon into your diet can be an excellent way to enjoy a delicious meal while reaping the nutritional benefits that contribute to a healthy balanced diet.
