Abstract
Seafood contains high-quality protein, vitamins, and minerals that have many health benefits, but the average family’s consumption of seafood in the United States remains below recommended levels. To begin to understand how to raise consumption levels, the study described in this 3-page fact sheet focuses on the influence parents’ seafood consumption habits may have on their children.
