Fish
Fish is a rich source of omega-3 fatty acids, particularly EPA and DHA, which have been shown to reduce the risk of heart disease. These fatty acids help lower triglycerides, raise HDL (good) cholesterol, and reduce blood pressure. They also help prevent blood clots and reduce inflammation, all of which contribute to heart health.
Omega-3 fatty acids also play a crucial role in brain function. They are essential for brain development and function, and they may help protect against cognitive decline and dementia. Studies have shown that people who eat fish regularly have a lower risk of Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia.
