Eating fresh salmon or other coldwater fish like halibut and tuna is recommended by the Alzheimer’s Association as part of a brain-healthy diet. The United States Department of Agriculture also suggests more fish for lunch and dinner as part of their new food pyramid. The American Heart Association (AHA) has been singing the praises of fish for years. The AHA proposes that a diet rich in fish is a good idea for those with healthy hearts and those who have been diagnosed with heart disease.

Fresh salmon and other oily fishes are rife with omega-3 fatty acids. These are known as “good fats” and have been shown to benefit the heart and the mind. Seafood is also low in harmful saturated fat and full of necessary vitamins and minerals. The risk of congestive heart failure can be lowered by eating more fish, according to a study done by the American College of Cardiology.

Omega-3 fats are believed to help regulate heart rhythm, decrease the risk of blood clotting and lower blood pressure. Fresh salmon contains more omega-3 acids than nearly any other food. Most salmon on the market these days is farm-raised, but wild salmon can be found without much trouble. Wild Alaskan salmon is the most popular variety.
