Fish is a healthy food, rich in quality animal proteins, polyunsaturated fatty acids especially the (ω)-3 eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid and micronutrients. In addition, fish are more available and affordable than other sources of animal proteins in tropical countries. Aquaculture, which is one of the fastest growing food production sectors, could play a big role in eradicating hunger, malnutrition and nutrient-deprivation globally. However, nutritional information on fish is necessary for utilization of fish in achieving nutritional security and will be helpful in prioritizing species for aquaculture. In this context, we have studied the detailed nutritional composition of selected fishes from India and developed a database (http://www.cifri.res.in/nutrifishin/index.php) with the food data generated. This review explore the implications of such nutritional information in consumer guidance, dietary counselling, food-policy planning and prioritization of species for aquaculture to fight hunger, malnutrition and micronutrient deficiency; ultimately contributing to food and nutritional security.
鱼类是一种健康的食物，富含优质动物蛋白、多不饱和脂肪酸，特别是（ω）-3 二十碳五烯酸和二十二碳六烯酸，以及微量营养素。此外，在热带国家，鱼类比其他动物蛋白来源更容易获得和负担得起。水产养殖是增长最快的食品生产部门之一，它可以在全球范围内消除饥饿、营养不良和营养缺乏方面发挥重要作用。然而，鱼类的营养信息对于利用鱼类实现营养安全是必要的，这将有助于为水产养殖确定优先养殖的物种。在这种情况下，我们研究了来自印度的一些选定鱼类的详细营养成分，并利用生成的食物数据开发了一个数据库（http://www.cifri.res.in/nutrifishin/index.php）。本综述探讨了这些营养信息在消费者指导、饮食咨询、食品政策规划和优先养殖物种以消除饥饿、营养不良和微量营养素缺乏方面的意义；最终有助于实现粮食和营养安全。
