HEALTH BENEFITS OF TUNA.
August 3, 2011
Tuna was once considered by the samurai unfit to eat, and is now one of the most popular fish in Japan. It was in 1903 that a sardine shortage led to a cannery filling the cans with albacore, a species of tuna which had no commercial value.
The health benefits of tuna include blood pressure lowering, coronary heart disease prevention, and Alzheimer’s disease prevention.
Tuna is an excellent source of protein, and while some vitamin and mineral losses occur during canned tuna processing, the protein nutritive values are not dramatically changed. Tuna is an excellent source of the omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA, protein, potassium, selenium, and vitamin B12. It’s a very good source of niacin and phosphorus.
