Albacore is not only delicious to eat, but it’s also healthy for you. Albacore is low in sodium and contains the highest concentrations (2.1g per 3.5 oz. serving) of heart-healthy Omega-3 fatty acids in the tuna family. Regular consumption of Omega-3-rich fish such as Albacore has been linked to:
- reduced risk of heart attack & stroke
- reduction of depression-related symptoms
- relief from arthritis pain
- a lowering of blood pressure
New research published weekly points to the health benefits of eating as little as two servings a week of “oily” fish such as sardines, herring, salmon and of course…Albacore.
