Abstract

Sardines and anchovies are integral components of the Mediterranean diet, providing essential nutrients such as omega-3 fatty acids, proteins, and vitamins. However, concerns have been raised regarding the presence of heavy metals in these fish, which may pose potential health risks to consumers. This research article aims to evaluate the nutritional benefits and public health risks associated with metals in Greek coastal sardines and anchovies. Analyzing the metal content and nutritional composition of these fish is crucial for understanding their overall impact on human health and informing public health policies and dietary recommendations.
