Home » Shellfish and fish: treasures for our health Previous Shellfish and fish: treasures for our health Proteins Fish and shellfish are rich in protein (15 to 25% depending on the species). These proteins are essential for building and maintaining our muscles. Omega 3 fatty acids The famous omega 3 are polyunsaturated fatty acids which contribute to the proper functioning of the cardiovascular system . They are qualified as "essential", that is to say that our body is incapable of producing them: our food must therefore provide them to us. Oily fish, such as salmon or sardines, are a source of omega 3 fatty acid. Minerals and trace elements Fish and shellfish provide appreciable amounts of minerals: • Iron, which plays an essential role in cellular respiration mechanisms • Phosphorus, an essential component of bones; • Iodine, an important element for the proper functioning of the thyroid gland. • Zinc and copper, which play a vital role for the body; • Calcium, certainly concentrated in the bones, but also present in the flesh. Vitamins Fish and shellfish also help meet our vitamin needs, whether fresh, frozen or canned. They contain a lot of group B vitamins (B1, B2, B6, B12). Oily fish are rich in vitamins A, D and E. Vitamin B12 is found mainly in crustaceans.
