☞Today’s Health = The attractive cutlassfish, with their soft texture and light taste, are in season. Cutlassfish, both grilled and stewed, are rich in protein and unsaturated fatty acids, preventing adult diseases and making blood vessels healthy. Due to its high content of essential amino acid lysine, it is an excellent food for growing children and patients in the recovery period.
Among the nutritional components of cutlassfish in particular, attention should be paid to omega-3 fatty acids such as DHA and EPA. DHA activates brain cells, improves memory and learning ability, and helps prevent senile dementia. It also prevents and improves allergies, heart disease, and high blood pressure.
EPA increases good cholesterol (HDL) and lowers bad cholesterol (LDL), preventing arteriosclerosis, heart disease, high blood pressure, and cerebral hemorrhage. In addition, it inhibits platelet aggregation in the blood and helps to dissolve blood clots and expand blood vessels.
On the other hand, the ingredient called guanine in the scales of cutlassfish is fine when fresh, but when the freshness decreases, the fat is oxidized and gives off a fishy smell. In addition, guanine can cause stomach pain and hives, so if you eat raw, you must remove the epidermis.
