Both our planet’s surface and our brains are approximately 70% water, and yet only 2% of our food comes from the ocean; it’s time to get smart and manage the finite resources we have in a more responsible way. Aquaculture is one of the world’s fastest growing food production sectors and it now provides over half of the seafood eaten around the planet. Responsible fish farming is a key solution in the provision of sustainable food for humanity and we are proud to take a leading role in this fast-growing industry. MOWI salmon is a powerhouse of essential vitamins and minerals. In addition to extra Omega-3, it also has B12, E and D, plus selenium and iodine. The welfare of our salmon is high, and for our dedicated farmers, the welfare of our fish always comes first. Responsible farming is important to us – and you don’t just need to take our word for it, because 100% of MOWI salmon is third-party ASC certified. You can trace our salmon from farm to fork, the journey of your MOWI salmon is 100% traceable with our handy QR tool. Not only is our salmon good for you, preparing a MOWI feast is a breeze. There’s more on the amazing health benefits of omega-3s below, by the way, so keep on reading. Interestingly, although DHA, which is one of the main omega-3s, does occur in terrestrial foods, the quantities available are insignificant: the primary source of DHA is seafood. The role of this nutrient in cognitive function is also extremely important: there’s increasing evidence that early hominid brain development was linked to our consumption of omega-3s in seafood – it’s possibly what separates us from chimpanzees!
