HEALTH & BENEFITS

Fish is a great source of lean protein and omega-3 fatty acids, which have been linked to reduced inflammation, improved heart health, and reduced risk of certain diseases.
Sweet potatoes are a nutrient-dense food and are high in fiber, vitamins, and minerals such as vitamin A, vitamin C, and potassium. They may also help regulate blood sugar levels.
