WHO WOULD'VE BELIEVED THAT ?

Well chosen, the sushi makis are a nutritional gold mine.

  Poorly chosen, they can put your line at risk.

Follow our tips to get the most benefit.

1 Ask for sesame seeds on

your California rolls. They are rich in magnesium, good for the brain.

Another judicious "decoration", smelt eggs (masago), source

additional omega-3.

2 For maximum protein

and a minimum of fat, choose the following sushi:

octopus (tako), albacore tuna (maguro), shrimp (amaebi) and clam (hokkigai).

For omega-3s, do not forget the salmon, but in reasonable quantities.

3 Ask the chef if he makes his makis with real crab and not

surimi.

  This pale imitation contains half the protein, and virtually no omega-3.

  It will be more expensive, but really better.
