Nutritional Information for Families

· Fish Facts for Families - There is little doubt that seafood, which is low in saturated fats, is one of the healthier sources of animal protein. It also provides vitamins and minerals, including iron, zinc, and vitamins A, B, and D. At the same time, seafood presents some of the more daunting food choices for families who care about the environment and are concerned about limiting their children's exposure to toxic pollutants.
