Harm

The content of fats and carbohydrates in greenling fish does not exceed quantitative standards. In the absence of contraindications, the product can be used without special restrictions. Greenling can cause harm to the body if it is eaten in large quantities due to problems with the thyroid gland. A high level of iodine in the body can disrupt the functioning of the digestive organs, lead to a sharp loss of body weight, lower blood pressure, and slow down the heart rate. If you have thyroid disease, you should consult a specialist before consuming this fish.

Scientific research has shown that some types of marine fish contain carcinogens. Studies of the greenling have confirmed that it is also a fish containing high levels of mercury.

Appearance and varieties

The greenling has an elongated body, which is covered with small scales. As a rule, average individuals grow up to 50 centimeters. However, in nature there were individuals more than 1.5 meters long. As a rule, the weight of the fish does not exceed 2 kilograms. The generally accepted record is an individual weighing 60 kilograms.

The fish has a solid dorsal fin. In the single-feathered greenling, as a rule, it is either solid across the entire back, or divided into 2 parts by a deep depression. Each species of greenling has a different number of lateral lines. Usually it ranges from 1 to 5. You can see it in more detail in the photo.

Northern mackerel

Greenling

Due to the fact that the greenling is very similar to river perch, it is called either simply perch or greenling perch. Fish can be painted any color. As a rule, color directly depends on the type of habitat. However, one significant feature can be highlighted with confidence: all greenlings have thick vertical stripes on the body. As a rule, they are painted in a very dark, almost black color.

Contraindications

In the absence of general contraindications for a pregnant woman, she is recommended to eat dishes with green greens 2 times a week. Fish should not be consumed by a woman during the first months of breastfeeding. This product is suitable for baby food. If the baby has no allergic reactions, you can introduce him to the greenling from 10 months. In the first months of complementary feeding, fish should be chopped in a blender or meat grinder. After 14 months, you can offer your baby greenling in portioned pieces. Giving fish to small children more than once every 10 days is not recommended. Terpug is contraindicated if:

• the function of the thyroid gland is impaired (produces a large amount of hormones);
• there is a tendency to allergic reactions;
• increased stomach acidity;
• there are diseases of the gastrointestinal tract and liver.

Greenling fish reviews and comments

Thinker

06.07.2014

Sorry, but cooking animal products in an air fryer is not healthy. At temperatures much higher than 100 degrees Celsius, a deeper molecular restructuring occurs in animal products, far from the native (natural) one; fatty acids are oxidized by 100 percent. The composite, deeply modified fractions of the product formed after such heat treatment of food will, as before, be used to build cellular structures, since the body needs substrates to renew the entire cellular pool. But nothing good can be built from such damaged substrates. Oxidized fatty acids will be used as membrane stabilizers, which will subsequently be identified as foreign by immune surveillance organs. From here we get cholesterol inflammation and the risk of autoimmune pathologies (together with viruses). Raw, lightly salted, steaming, boiling and stewing in a constant (!) volume of water will be more rational.

Unsaturated fats, which have the properties of rejuvenating body cells, will help maintain healthy skin, nails and hair longer. However, this is only an external effect - after all, the internal organs are also rejuvenated. Therefore, a piece of another oily fish will not hurt anyone.

Vitamins and minerals

Terpug is valued for its content of vitamins important for humans:

Greenling fish is rich in essential minerals necessary for the body:

Sea fish contains many of the elements necessary for the healthy development of the human body. For consumption, it is better to use greens that have not been frozen. The maximum amount of valuable substances is preserved in fish cooked by steaming or baking.

Terpug

One of the representatives of schooling bottom fish is the greenling. Fish are found in the sea, closer to the shore, but at a considerable depth - about 200 meters. Each individual weighs no more than 2-2.5 kg, the length of the fish reaches approximately 60-70 cm. Today, this highly nutritious greenling meat is in demand due to its low calorie content and high content of vitamins, fatty acids and minerals.

Properties of greenling fish

Industrial volumes of fish catch, about 60 thousand tons annually, have become the norm for the country, because people have long appreciated its excellent taste and numerous beneficial properties. They catch greenlings with a seine, and in the open sea they use special bottom trawls. The popularity of this species is growing due to its tasty and healthy meat. Today the greenling is a valuable commercial fish.

It is usually sold frozen in supermarkets and stores. In fishing areas - fresh or chilled. Greenling meat has a greenish or yellowish tint, which may alert the consumer. This fish is very useful for humans. Fish meat contains rare and important zinc for the body, and no less specific anticyanin. In addition, greenling is a source of fatty acids, as well as microelements - Mg, Zn, Se, Fe, I, P, Ca, K and molybdenum, chromium, sulfur, bromine.

Benefits of greenling meat

If we talk about the benefits of greenling meat, we can start with the fact that 100 g of fresh fish contains about 100 calories. For those who require a diet, greenling meat will be of great benefit, since it is low in calories and by eating it, you can reduce your weight, and then control it in the future. Phosphorus contained in fish meat effectively affects the state of the central nervous system, stimulates memory, brain function, reduces fatigue, and increases performance. Zinc and anticyanin effectively reduce blood cholesterol levels.

Vitamins of group B, as well as A, C, PP, stimulate and strengthen the immune system, and also revitalize and normalize metabolism in the body. Microelements are very useful for the whole body; such a set, as in fish, is quite rare, and therefore eating such meat corresponds to drinking a mineral cocktail, and at the same time, it also contains a lot of nutrients - protein and essential amino acids. For thyroid diseases, greenling meat is the best natural source of iodine. The unsaturated omega-3 fatty acids contained prevent fatty plaques on the walls of blood vessels and generally improve heart function.

Application of greenling fish

On sale there is usually greenling caught in the waters of the seas of the Far East. The white meat of the fish is very tender, it is ideal meat for any type of cooking. Fish is usually prepared in different ways. You can use it to make fish soup, smoke it, preserve it, fry it and stuff it. The latter method of preparation is considered by the greenling to be a special delicacy if you use pine nuts and a lot of sautéed onions in the filling. But in order to fully obtain all the beneficial properties of meat, you should steam it or bake it in a special convection oven.

The important advantages of this fish include the fact that it has practically no bones, moreover, it is very easy to clean with a scraper or knife before cooking. Smoked greenling is unusually tasty. The dish is prepared as follows: frozen fish is rubbed with salt and spices. They smoke in a special workshop. If cold smoking technology is used, the meat of the greenling becomes unusually aromatic. And if the fish is cooked hot smoked, the meat becomes juicy. Smoked greenling is used as an independent dish.

Harm to the greenling

Harm from greenling meat is unlikely. However, in some people it can cause, like any sea fish, individual intolerance. This manifests itself in allergic reactions. It is not recommended to eat smoked greenling for people with diseases such as pancreatitis, stomach ulcers, and pyelonephritis. Caution should be exercised when consuming fried green greens by those on a diet. Stuffed greenling with spices can cause exacerbation of gastrointestinal diseases in those who suffer from cholecystitis. Also, spices will cause an exacerbation of liver diseases.

The greenling perch, also known as the serpentine perch or the toothy greenling, is a valuable marine game fish. It is characterized by one long dorsal fin and, as the name implies, a large mouth full of teeth. The meat of this fish is a good source of protein, low in fat, and is also characterized by a rich vitamin and mineral composition.

Nutritional value of greenling

An average fillet of redfish weighs about 300 g and contains about 330 calories, most of which come from protein and only a small part from fat. This fish is an excellent source of vitamins B12 and B6. By eating half a fillet, you get the full recommended dose of the first vitamin and about a quarter of the second. The same amount of cooked fish contains a full dose of the essential mineral selenium and almost half of the phosphorus the average person needs daily. The greenling is also rich in:

Ribofalvin; - nicotinic acid; — pantothenic acid; - folates; - thiamine; — vitamin A; - magnesium; - potassium; - zinc; - sodium.

The protein in green greenery is complete, that is, it contains all the amino acids necessary for humans, although two of them, methionine and phenylalanine, are in trace quantities. Of the important but replenishable amino acids in fish, there is arginine, which helps heal wounds, detoxify the liver, and strengthen the immune system.

The meat of the greenling perch is not inferior in its taste characteristics to the meat of halibut or salmon

Useful properties of greenling perch

The main benefits that can be obtained by eating greenling meat are related to the nutrients that this fish contains in large quantities, namely niacin, phosphorus, selenium, potassium and vitamins B6 and B12.

Niacin, or niacin, is important for the release of energy from fats, proteins and carbohydrates; in addition, it is responsible for the proper functioning of the gastrointestinal tract and nervous system, as well as skin health. Phosphorus is a component of every cell, and is especially necessary for bones and teeth. Together with sodium and potassium, phosphorus maintains acid-base balance and helps muscle contraction, nerve conduction, and regular heartbeat. Selenium, along with vitamin E, acts as an antioxidant, protecting cells from free radical damage. This mineral is important both in the functioning of the thyroid gland and in the functioning of the immune system.

Excess selenium results in general fatigue, hair loss, and gastrointestinal disorders.

Potassium maintains the balance of external and intracellular fluid in the body, prevents bone loss, that is, it fights osteoporosis and other age-related changes in bones, helps reduce the risk of kidney stones, and is also important for many metabolic reactions. Vitamin B6, or pyridoxine, is necessary for both the nervous and immune systems and maintains normal blood sugar levels. Vitamin B12, together with folic acid, reduces the level of homocysteine, which damages blood vessels and heart muscle, leading to cardiovascular diseases.

The greenling belongs to the scorpionfish family. Within their family, greenlings form a separate subfamily of greenlings. The family is usually divided into 5 genera.

How is Terpug useful?

• Vitamin B5
  is involved in protein, fat, carbohydrate metabolism, cholesterol metabolism, the synthesis of a number of hormones, hemoglobin, promotes the absorption of amino acids and sugars in the intestines, and supports the function of the adrenal cortex. A lack of pantothenic acid can lead to damage to the skin and mucous membranes.
• Vitamin B12
  plays an important role in the metabolism and transformation of amino acids. Folate and vitamin B12 are interconnected vitamins that are involved in hematopoiesis. A lack of vitamin B12 leads to the development of partial or secondary folate deficiency, as well as anemia, leukopenia, and thrombocytopenia.
• Potassium
  is the main intracellular ion that takes part in the regulation of water, acid and electrolyte balance, and is involved in the processes of conducting nerve impulses and regulating blood pressure.
• Phosphorus
  takes part in many physiological processes, including energy metabolism, regulates acid-base balance, is part of phospholipids, nucleotides and nucleic acids, and is necessary for the mineralization of bones and teeth. Deficiency leads to anorexia, anemia, and rickets.
• Iodine
  is involved in the functioning of the thyroid gland, ensuring the formation of hormones (thyroxine and triiodothyronine). Necessary for the growth and differentiation of cells of all tissues of the human body, mitochondrial respiration, regulation of transmembrane transport of sodium and hormones. Insufficient intake leads to endemic goiter with hypothyroidism and slowing of metabolism, arterial hypotension, stunted growth and mental development in children.
• Cobalt
  is part of vitamin B12. Activates enzymes of fatty acid metabolism and folic acid metabolism.
• Copper
  is part of enzymes that have redox activity and are involved in the metabolism of iron, stimulates the absorption of proteins and carbohydrates. Participates in the processes of providing oxygen to the tissues of the human body. Deficiency is manifested by disturbances in the formation of the cardiovascular system and skeleton, and the development of connective tissue dysplasia.
• Selenium
  is an essential element of the antioxidant defense system of the human body, has an immunomodulatory effect, and is involved in the regulation of the action of thyroid hormones. Deficiency leads to Kashin-Beck disease (osteoarthritis with multiple deformities of the joints, spine and limbs), Keshan disease (endemic myocardiopathy), and hereditary thrombasthenia.
• Chromium
  is involved in the regulation of blood glucose levels, enhancing the effect of insulin. Deficiency leads to decreased glucose tolerance.
