Brain food? Improve your health by adding fish to your diet


If you want to beat depression, studies say eating more fish might just do the trick. Fish, especially fatty ones like salmon, mackerel, trout and herring, are rich in omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3 fatty acids support a healthy mind and body. Omega-3 deficiency has long been suggested as a big contributor to the onset of depression.

Studies show a higher consumption of fish is linked to a 17% reduction in the risk factors for developing depression.

Omega-3 fatty acids support healthy brain tissue and structure of membranes. They are also important for regulating proper amounts of neurotransmitters, such as serotonin and dopamine, which are known to cause mood elevation. Proper maintenance of neurotransmitters is the key to fighting depression and keeping the brain healthy.

In addition to improving brain functions and combating depression, omega-3 fatty acids also help keep your heart healthy. Moreover, fish is also an excellent, lean protein source that could keep you fit, especially when partnered with proper exercise. With a healthy heart and body, it’s definitely much easier to keep active and lead a more fulfilling life.

If you want to improve your overall health, adding fish to your daily diet might just be what your body needs. Keep this in mind the next time you visit your favorite sushi place!
