Every day, researchers are pouring out new evidence confirming the healthy rewards of a seafood rich diet: better skin, increased memory, and even smarter babies.
With all this valuable information about the health benefits of seafood, consumers are largely unaware of varying degrees in the quality of the seafood they purchase.
In the seafood industry the word "fresh" specifically refers to a product that has never been frozen; it gives absolutely no insight to the actual quality of that product or its "freshness".
The reality is fresh seafood is rarely the highest quality product available.
Only when consumers are close to the source, during the fishing season, can high quality fresh seafood be found.
Enzymes found in the muscle tissues begin to break down the flesh, which over a short amount of time can greatly jeopardize the quality of the seafood.
