CONS

While the dish is healthy and delicious, it may not be to everyone’s taste due to its raw nature.

Consuming raw fish can also pose a risk of foodborne illnesses, and it is important to source high-quality sashimi-grade fish from a reputable fishmonger.

This dish can also be relatively expensive due to the cost of sashimi-grade tuna.

HEALTH & BENEFITS

Tuna is an excellent source of protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and several important micronutrients like vitamin D and selenium. The omega-3s found in tuna can help reduce inflammation, lower blood pressure, and reduce the risk of heart disease.
Avocado is another nutrient-dense ingredient, rich in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats and fiber.
