The Advantages of Fresh, Never Frozen Fish

OceanBox August 25, 2024

On a basic human level, the energy we require to lead a healthy life is fueled by what we put into our bodies - simply known as food. What should be as thoughtless as trusting our retailers, grocers, and restaurants to offer fresh, never frozen seafood, providing us with the highest level of nutrients, and enabling a longer, healthier existence, is unfortunately not always what we are
being served.

When it comes to seafood, OceanBox fish is fresh and has never frozen so you can consume your seafood the way nature intended.

It may seem obvious that food is a lot more tasty when eaten fresh as opposed to de-thawing a frozen meal, but are the health benefits different as well?

Nutrients

Studies show that eating fresh fish with a shorter journey from the sea to your plate not only
preserves the taste of the fish but also its nutritional value. Thawing once frozen fish can reduce some of the water content that contains water-soluble vitamins and minerals that are beneficial to your health. When choosing to consume seafood, it is only fair that you absorb all of the nutrients and reap the benefits of your healthy choices.

Taste

When it comes to taste, frozen fish can begin to lose its flavor over time. When you purchase OceanBox fish, you are getting the freshest catch every time with fish that always contains
optimal flavor. OceanBox fish comes straight from the sea to your plate, and you won’t have to dowst your seafood in loads of butter and marinade to experience amazing flavor (although there is nothing wrong with soaking your fish in incredible flavors, as seen with some of our delicious original OceanBox recipes). We believe that you should eat fish the way nature intended, and mother nature knew just what she was doing.

Handling

Gentle handling of fresh fish is also important in the process of providing you with the freshest, safest to eat fish nature can offer. When fresh seafood is chilled properly, handled with care, and packaged securely, you can feel great eating fresh fish with no concern for bacterial growth, and enjoy maximum flavor, ideal texture, and the utmost nutritional value.
