🍎 Today’s Health Question ~ Are Sardines a Healthy Choice?

True or False: Sardines are high in Omega 3’s as well as mercury levels.

Answer:

False: Sardines are high in Omega 3’s but they are low in mercury levels. Their little bones may help your broken bones heal faster. Usually packed into small tins with water, olive oil, or tomato juice, these tiny fish are full of calcium and vitamin D. They also have more bone-strengthening omega-3 fatty acids than most other fish. Bonus: Sardines are caught wild and young, which means their mercury levels are low.
