Fish for Health


Posted by sheryl w.

A recent study that was published in the journal Medical Science Monitor assessed the relationship between fish-eating and a variety of health markers in a group of Mediterranean individuals aged 65-100 years.

Higher fish intake was found to be associated with more balanced blood sugar levels, and lower cholesterol levels and blood pressure.

This study in addition to many others shows that regular fish eating yields a wide range of health giving benefits.

A decrease in the weekly consumption of fish increased the risk of having an additional risk factor such as high blood pressure, diabetes or obesity.

It also works wonders for depression, concentration, and pure happiness!

Fish, especially fatty fish, found in colder and cleaner waters in the northern latitudes have many health benefits. They contain the essential omega 3 fatty acids that have been reported to help support heart health, immune health, improve brain function and maintain joint health. The American Heart Association recommends eating fatty fish twice a week. But not everyone can regularly and consistently include fish in their diet—and some people simply just don’t enjoy the taste of fish. Fish oil supplements work just as well. Make sure you choose pharmaceutical grade, like Triple Strength Omega 3, which has been rigorously filter so that you are exposed the least heavy metal contaminants, or other PCBs.
