Assessing your needs
Are you wondering how much fish you can safely eat? Eating fish has both benefits and risks. For example, some fish are a good source of heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids and protein, and are low in saturated fat. But some may also contain significant levels of environmental contaminants. For help deciding what’s best for your diet, visit our Making the right choice section.

Do you want to know which fish are considered sustainable? While some fish stocks are being depleted or farmed in a way that’s harmful to the environment, others are managed more sustainably. To find resources that can help you identify fish from sustainable sources, visit our Making the right choice section.
