Fish – Nutrient Powerhouse for Brain and Heart Health

Fish is often praised for its omega-3 fatty acids and lean protein, supporting brain function and cardiovascular health. However, some concerns about mercury and sustainability leave people uncertain.

Debunking Fish Myths

• “Fish has too much mercury and is dangerous.”
  While some fish types have higher mercury levels, many commonly available fish like salmon, trout, and sardines have safe levels. Moderation and variety reduce any risk.
• “Fish is expensive and hard to prepare.”
  Many easy recipes are available for quick preparation, and frozen or canned fish options offer affordability and convenience.
• “Only fatty fish are healthy.”
  Both fatty and white fish provide important nutrients like protein and vitamins. Including a variety of fish types benefits your diet.

Balanced Consumption
Aim to include fish 1–2 times per week, combining it with plant-based proteins and other lean meats for a well-rounded diet.
