About Fish tilapia
Tilapia is a mild-flavored freshwater fish native to Africa and the Middle East, widely cultivated around the globe. Known for its versatility, tilapia is a staple in many cuisines, including Asian, African, and Latin American dishes. It’s an excellent source of protein, providing essential amino acids while being low in fat, making it a heart-healthy choice. Tilapia is rich in nutrients such as selenium, vitamin B12, and phosphorus, which support cellular health, energy production, and bone strength. However, it is relatively lower in omega-3 fatty acids compared to fatty fish like salmon. The healthiness of tilapia varies based on farming practices, so choosing responsibly-sourced and sustainably-raised options is important. Its mild taste and tender texture make it a popular choice for grilling, baking, or pan-frying, fitting well in balanced, nutritious meals.
