Nutritional quality of aquatic foods from Timor-Leste. Penang, Malaysia: WorldFish. Program Brief: 2024-31.https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12348/6199This visual brief presents results on the nutritional composition of Aquatic Foods from Timor-Leste, analyzed for the first time. Thirty-two aquatic food species – composed of 17 finfish, 12 shellfish and 3 seaweed – were analyzed for comprehensive nutrient pro­files, including proximates, minerals, vitamins and essential fatty acids. The results highlight the contributions to recommended nutrient intakes from 100 g of aquatic foods for women of reproductive age in Timor-Leste and identify the ten most micronutrient-rich species. A poster representing the diverse habitats where nutrient-rich aquatic foods are sourced from shows that they are collected through different fi­shing and gleaning techniques. The brief also includes a section explaining the role of different nutrients for health.PDFCC-BY-NC-4.0nutrient profilefish speciesBrief
