According to the US Department of Agriculture, rice fish is an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, protein, vitamins, and minerals. More importantly, they provide beneficial fats and cholesterol for heart health.

The reason rice fish is considered a “clean” fish is because of their short lifespan, which leads to a lower accumulation of toxins compared to other fish species.
