Shrimp Pasta

With New Year’s Eve right in the rear view mirror, many of us are still hard at work trying to accomplish our New Year’s resolutions. And if you are like most of us, your resolution probably had something to do with your health, whether it is getting in shape, losing weight, or eating healthier. Well, what if there was a way to accomplish all three?

The Answer: Seafood!

The health benefits of seafood include:

  1. Low in Fat: Seafood averages less than 2% fat. And the fat seafood does have is mostly unsaturated fat.
  2. Low in Cholesterol: Seafood, fish in particular, is very low in cholesterol. In fact, eating fish two to three times a week can help lower cholesterol and reduce the risk of heart disease.
  3. High in Protein: Seafood is a fantastic source of protein.
  4. High in Vitamins & Minerals: Seafood is full of vitamins and minerals, including: iodine, zinc, potassium, phosphorus and vitamin B.
  5. Omega 3 Fatty Acids: Seafood is full of Omega-3, an essential nutrient for the body.

Seafood is a part of a well-balanced, nutritious diet. And when that diet is coupled with regular exercise, the results can be tremendous.
