Even with the country's inflation under control, consumers have been scared when checking beef prices in butchers and supermarkets. In November, some cuts increased above 10%, according to the survey by the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE). The cuts that recorded the highest increases were fillet cape (12.89%), soft top (12.49%) and lizard (10.92%). Pork, chicken and eggs also became more expensive. For those looking for a healthy way to replace these ingredients and still save money, the right choice is fish, especially canned fish, such as sardines, tuna and mackerel.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to food engineer Thais Fagury, president of the Brazilian Association of Steel Packaging (Abea\u00e7o), sardines, canned or fresh, have always been the most accessible type of protein on Brazilian tables and represent 22% of fish caught on the coast of the country. \u201cIn addition to being a delicious and versatile fish, which can be baked, grilled, fried or stewed in a multitude of recipes, fish is rich in vitamin D, phosphorus, selenium, vitamin B12 and fatty acids, such as Omega 3, which help in the health of the cardiovascular system\u201d, highlights the food engineer.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to Thais, just 100 grams of sardines contain 21 g of high biological value proteins, which corresponds to approximately 20% of an adult's daily needs. \u201cIn relation to beef, sardines have advantages. The first is that it is less caloric.\u201d For the sake of comparison, 100 grams of the canned sardine version with tomato sauce contains only 111 calories, against 311 calories for the same amount of sirloin steak.<\/span><\/p>\n

The advantages of canned sardines, however, do not stop there. According to research carried out by Unicamp, the canned sardine version beats fresh sardines in at least one nutrient: calcium. \u201cThe canned sardine filling process makes the bones very soft and can be eaten together with the fish. In the case of fresh sardines, it is not possible to swallow the bones\u201d, explains Thais, adding that the vitamin D present in the fish helps in the absorption of calcium, strengthening the bones, helping in the growth of children and in the prevention of osteoporosis in the elderly. \u201cIn addition to sardines, other fish packaged in steel, such as tuna and mackerel, are excellent options for practical recipes rich in proteins and other nutrients\u201d, he concludes.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you still have doubts, compare prices: a kilo of sirloin is costing around R$ 35*. With this amount, it is possible to take home ten 125 g cans of sardines from one of the most recognized brands in the country, in versions in oil or with tomato sauce.<\/span><\/p>\n
