Omega-3s are essential fatty acids—EPA, DHA, and ALA—with key roles in heart, brain, and eye health. EPA and DHA come mainly from fatty fish like salmon and sardines, while ALA is plant-based and converts poorly in the body. For supplements, choose sustainably sourced fish oil with at least 500 mg of EPA and DHA and minimal additives.

Mackerel is a powerhouse of nutrition—rich in omega-3s, high in protein, and packed with essential vitamins. It's more affordable than salmon and supports heart, brain, and joint health. Though both mackerel and salmon are fatty fish with overlapping benefits, key differences in fat profiles, vitamin content, and sourcing methods make each unique.

Sushi began as fermented fish preserved in rice and evolved into modern nigiri in Japan. Today, it continues to transform. Chef Janine has created a delicious low-carb version for keto lifestyles—using ginger-infused cauliflower rice instead of traditional rice—so ketoers can enjoy sushi guilt-free without compromising flavor or nutrition. Chef Janine's Cali-Japan fusion roll is light, refreshing, and completely guilt-free—proof that you don’t need rice to enjoy great sushi.

Mackerel is an affordable, omega-3-rich oily fish that's flavorful, fast-replenishing, and environmentally friendly. Packed with protein, selenium, and vitamin B12, it supports heart health, brain function, immunity, and radiant skin. Fresh or frozen, wild-caught mackerel is one of the healthiest, most sustainable seafood choices.
