Seafood consumption could help fill nutrition gaps in Brazil
Despite Brazil’s extensive coastline and extraordinary marine biodiversity, seafood consumption remains relatively low. Our study shows that increasing access to nutrient-rich aquatic foods could help reduce important micronutrient deficiencies, but increasing consumption cannot simply mean catching more fish. The opportunity lies in connecting human nutrition, fisheries sustainability, aquaculture, and biodiversity. Different seafood species provide different combinations of essential nutrients, meaning that protecting aquatic biodiversity and developing nutritionally diverse seafood production can benefit both people and ecosystems.
