It feels good to eat well, but even better when the food is delicious! Fish and seafood offer the best of both worlds – well-rounded nutrition and great taste. And at Bonefish Grill, we are proud to offer a wide range of options for every seafood lover. Experts suggest eating fish and seafood a few times per week to truly take advantage of their health benefits1, including:
Omega-3 Fatty Acids – Scientific research has proven the Omega-3 fatty acids found in many species of fish and seafood offer extensive health benefits, including boosting one’s immune system, reducing the risk of heart problems, and even alleviating neck and back pain2.
Vitamins and Minerals – Vitamins A, D and B-complex are commonly found in a number of species as well as minerals such as zinc and calcium3. For those looking to cut back on their sodium intake, eating fish is a great choice. Fish and seafood generally contain low traces of sodium and even the highest sodium levels are only a small percentage of the current daily recommended value4.
Protein – Fish and seafood are a commonly recommended source of protein and essential amino acids. Since our bodies cannot synthesize these essential amino acids on their own, it is important to include foods like fish and seafood into our diets5.
