Trout -
A Healthy Choice
 A
recent report revealed that Americans are eating 22 % more fish and seafood today than
they did ten years ago. And why? Fish and seafood have been described as
"the quintessential low-fat, low-sodium food," thereby
appealing to our nation's increasing concern about health and nutrition. It's a wonderful
source of protein, and low in calories. Organizations such as the American Cancer Society
and American Heart Association suggest that eating fish and other lean meats is an excellent
way to lower fat intake.
Trout
is naturally low in sodium and calories. Trout has high levels of Omega-3 fatty
acids, which have been proven to lower blood triglycerides and cholesterol
levels, reduce risk of death from coronary and cardiovascular disease, reduce blood
pressure and relieve the pain of rheumatoid arthritis.
If
you couple the health attributes of fish and seafood, with its increased availability and
variety, and the fact that it's a natural fast food, it's no surprise
that consumption will increase in the years ahead.
And
why trout? What other fish conjures up the image of both mountain streams and campfires,
as well as fine dinning? These two scenes illustrate the uniqueness of trout, it's
versatility and affordability.
Trout has a special, delicate flavor, delicious in itself, or it can be enhanced by the
addition of sauces or stuffings. It is easily handled and most dishes are quick and simple
to prepare. And the short cooking time helps accommodate busy schedules.
Think
trout...truly a taste treat!
