Oysters are hailed as a superfood, packed with essential nutrients that contribute to overall well-being. These nutrient-rich mollusks are a powerhouse of protein, omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals, including zinc, iron, and selenium. Oysters support brain function, heart health, and immune system strength, while also promoting healthy skin and boosting energy levels. Their high content of antioxidants further aids in reducing inflammation and combating free radicals.
