Abstract: Fishes are the rich source of nutrients, providing an important complement to the predominantly carbohydrate-based staple diet of many people in Kerala Fishes arcuate different from other animal food sources, because they provide calories with high quality proteins, which contain all essential amino acids in easily digestible from and are beneficial nutritional sources.
