Abstract:
Fish is a good source of almost all nutrients except carbohydrate and vitamin C. It has a very important role in eradicating long term nutritional problems including anemia, stunting, low birth weight and many others. In the present scenario many people of our country, particularly rural, illiterate and backward populations are not much aware about the balanced diet due to which they are suffering from various nutritional problems (Deb and Haque, 2010). The majority of women and children are anemic and malnourished. When we think about balanced diet, fish along with cereals may become a good proportion to combat the nutritional problems.
