Atlantic mackerel has one of the highest EPA + DHA omega-3 concentrations of any fish. Also the highest CoQ10 content — the mitochondrial energy compound depleted by statins and beta blockers. One of the top 3 most nutrient-dense affordable seafoods in the database.
Canned mackerel costs $1.50-2.50 per can and provides 2 servings of omega-3 at a higher concentration than canned salmon. Available at most grocery stores.
Highest CoQ10 of any fish — directly addressing the CoQ10 depletion caused by statins and beta blockers. The EPA + DHA concentration rivals salmon at significantly lower cost. B12 content addresses the metformin-driven B12 depletion in Black diabetic patients. Selenium is an antioxidant with documented thyroid and immune support. The omega-3 reduces neuroinflammation — the mechanism linking depression to the cardiovascular burden.
Canned mackerel (in water or olive oil, not vegetable oil) is the most accessible form. Drain and eat on crackers, in salads, or mashed with lemon and mustard. Fresh mackerel: grill or bake at 400F for 12-15 minutes. Season simply — the fish is rich enough to need little.
