Chemical Composition and Nutritional Value of Dried Fish in Bangladesh
Nowadays, people are very conscious about health and nutritional issues and they concern about the nutritional value of the dried fish when they buy these foods for their household consumption. The review article mainly focused on the chemical composition of dried fishes of Bangladesh including protein and amino acid, fats and fatty acid profile, and minerals along with their health benefits. Dried fish is a specially processed fishery product along with high nutritional value and health benefits due to important nutritional components. The principal components of dried fish are high-quality protein and amino acids. It also contains lipids, polyunsaturated fatty acids, especially eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA); richer mainly in marine dried fish. Small dried fishes contain more mineral contents such, as calcium, iron, potassium, sodium, phosphorus, zinc, etc. compared to the larger ones. Therefore, the consumption of dried seafood has beneficial effects on human health. It helps in forming body tissues, antibodies, and enzymes, repairing worn-out tissues, with the decreased risk of coronary heart and cardiovascular diseases. In addition, it cures inflammatory diseases such as arthritis and prevents cancer, reduces lower insulin resistance, triglyceride, and obesity, and improves hyperglycemia, etc. While undernutrition is still negatively affecting the health and well-being of many people. Based on proximate composition, amino acids, fatty acids profile, and minerals, it can be concluded that dried fish can be a good source of health beneficial nutrients for humans.
