Kuwe -- Giant Trevally
Giant Trevally (GT), or Kuwe Gerong, is one of the fish species commonly found swimming around coral reefs in the Indian Ocean, Pacific Ocean, African waters, Hawaii, Australia, to Japan. This fish is quite easy to recognize from its physical characteristics, namely its silver-gray body, steep-blunt head, and large oar-like pectoral fins.
Giant Trevally is also a fairly fierce predator. These fish prey on small fish, turtle chicks, dolphins, and even birds that are flying low on the surface of the water.
Giant Trevally has a high protein content and complete amino acid composition, making it beneficial for the growth and maintenance of human body tissues. It doesn't stop there, because the complete amino acid composition of GT fish can stimulate the serotonin hormone, which is responsible for controlling stress. So consuming fish kuwe can also be an antidote to stress.
In addition to these two substances, GT fish is also rich in calcium, vitamin D, and vitamin C. These three micronutrients are very important for the body because they are useful for maintaining or preventing damage to bones and teeth.
