Fish and Shrimps in general are high in protein, low in saturated fats, and an excellent source of B vitamins and zinc. Most seafood products are naturally lower in fat than beef, pork and many other protein sources. Catfish and Shrimps contain Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, which has been found to be beneficial to cardiovascular health.

In the recent findings of Dr. Marit Espe from Norway’s National Institute of Nutrition and Seafood Research, who has done extensive studies on the nutrient composition of fresh and smoked salmon, she said: “the composition of Omega-3 fatty acids calculated as a percentage of the total lipids (fats) does not change during the smoking process. As a matter of fact, smoked fish contains the same level or more of omega-3 fatty acids than raw fish.

The omega-3 fatty acid oils are susceptible to oxidation during spoilage, so, the curing and smoking of fish not only helps to preserve the freshness of fish, but also helps in preserving the quality of the omega-3 fatty acids, the results say.
