Eating seafood offers a wide range of health benefits due to its unique nutritional profile. Seafood is rich in essential nutrients, including omega-3 fatty acids, high-quality protein, vitamins, minerals, and other important compounds that contribute to overall health and well-being.
- Avoid Cross-Contamination: Store seafood away from other foods to prevent cross-contamination. Keep seafood in sealed containers or wrap tightly to prevent odors from spreading.
- Use Freshness Quickly: Consume seafood as soon as possible after purchasing for the best taste and texture. Fresh seafood does not have a long shelf life, especially when stored at home.
- Avoid Freezing Unless Necessary: While some seafood can be frozen for longer storage, fresh seafood is best consumed fresh. If freezing, use airtight containers or vacuum-sealed bags to prevent freezer burn.
- Follow Use-By Dates: Pay attention to use-by dates or expiration dates on seafood packaging. Use seafood before the recommended date for optimal quality.
