The finest quality frozen seafood
Eating fish has long been known to reduce the risk of circulatory diseases and to lower your chances of suffering from fatal heart attacks and strokes.
There's also an advantage to seafood for the weight-conscious, as you'll find that Whitefish and Shellfish are low in calories!
- On average oily fish species, such as Salmon, Trout, Mackerel, Sardine, Kipper, Pilchard and Anchovies contain approx 2g of long chain Omega-3's per 100g.
- For Whitefish, such as Cod, Haddock, Hoki, Monkfish, Coley, Hake, Pollock and Sea Bream there's an average of 0.3g of long chain Omega-3's per 100g.

Fish are naturally low in saturated fat and are a healthy choice, because they are a good source of iron, calcium, zinc and iodine minerals as well as vitamins A, B and D.

Cholesterol - Shellfish not the enemy?
In the past people
were often guided away from consuming Shellfish, because they contain a
relatively high proportion of dietary cholesterol and this was believed to
contribute to increasing cholesterol levels in the bloodstream. It has since
been found that this is not the case and that foods which contain a large amount
of saturated fat are more to blame for elevated blood cholesterol levels.
Only a small number of people with genetic conditions, such as Familial Combined Hyperlipidaemia (FCH) and Familial Hypercholesterolaemia (FH) need to be more cautious about the foods they eat which contain dietary cholesterol and they should contact their doctor or dietician for advice as to what quantities to include in their diet.
