Why This Supports Joints & Mobility

  • Trout provides EPA and DHA, which help regulate inflammatory eicosanoid production and support resolution pathways in joint tissue.
  • Fennel contains flavonoids and volatile compounds that contribute antioxidant activity, helping limit oxidative stress that accelerates cartilage breakdown.
  • Oranges provide vitamin C, essential for collagen cross-linking and connective tissue strength.
  • Pistachios supply magnesium and polyphenols, supporting muscle function and inflammatory balance. Adequate muscle support around joints reduces mechanical strain.
  • This dish supports inflammatory regulation and structural integrity simultaneously.

 

Ingredients (Serves 2)

2 trout fillets
1 tbsp olive oil
1 small fennel bulb, thinly sliced
1 orange, segmented
2 tbsp pistachios, roughly crushed
1 tsp fennel seeds
Black pepper

 

Method

Preheat the oven to 180°C.

Place the trout fillets on a lined baking tray and drizzle with olive oil. Scatter over fennel slices and fennel seeds.

Bake for 12–15 minutes until the fish flakes easily.

Remove from the oven and top with orange segments and crushed pistachios. Finish with black pepper before serving.
