Wild Sockeye is so good for you in so many ways!
The exceptional nutrition of wild sockeye comes from their life in the North Pacific. Over several years of feeding on krill and plankton rich in marine oils and antioxidants, sockeye build powerful reserves of nutrients and omega-3 fats that fuel their long migrations. Their wild diet and active life is what gives sockeye both their deep red color, their remarkable nutritional value and clean, rich flavor.
