Mackerel is an important food fish that is consumed worldwide. [3] As an oily fish, it is a rich source of omega-3 fatty acids. [4] The flesh of mackerel spoils quickly, especially in the tropics, and can cause scombroid food poisoning. Accordingly, it should be eaten on the day of capture, unless properly refrigerated or cured. [5]
Little is known about king mackerel in their first year of life. Yearling fish typically attain an average weight of 1.4–1.8 kg (3.1–4.0 lb) and a fork length of 60 cm (24 in). At age seven, females average 10 kg (22 lb), males 5 kg (11 lb). King mackerel may attain 40 kg (88 lb), but any over 7 kg (15 lb) is almost certainly a female.

The food is mainly fish up to 12.5 cm (5 in) long, but the average size is 2.3 cm (7 ⁄ 8 in). [7] In Central Europe, 97% of the diet was found to be composed of fish ranging in size from 2 to 10 cm with an average of 6.5 cm (body mass range from <0.1 g to >10 g, average 3 g). [17] [18] Minnows, sticklebacks, small roach and trout are typical ...
[9] [10] Eating about 140 grams (4.9 oz) of oily fish rich in omega-3 fatty acids once per week is a recommended consumption amount. [9] [10] Increasing intake of omega-3 fatty acids may slightly reduce the risk of a fatal heart attack, [10] but likely has little effect on the overall number of deaths from cardiovascular disease.

Animal livers are rich in iron, copper, B vitamins and preformed vitamin A.Daily consumption of liver can be harmful; for instance, vitamin A toxicity has been proven to cause medical issues to babies born of pregnant mothers who consumed too much vitamin A. [3] For the same reason, consuming the livers of some species like polar bears, dogs, or moose is unsafe.
