Living Healthy: Some Reasons Why You Should Eat Fish

I know that most people do not like fish because of the after taste and its smell on your hand and body (it’s understandable, but if you wash your hands very well with nice fragrance hand soap, you might not necessarily perceive the smell)…I’m a fish lover so I know how to do it *thumbs up to me*

Do you know that, the omega-3 fats in fish protect the heart against the development of erratic and potentially deadly cardiac rhythm disturbances? Yep, eating fish fights heart disease (ask your Doctor for confirmation).

I was looking for articles to share on this platform about fish, and I stumbled on these few pointers below on PUNCH website. Read the pointers below…

1. Fish is great for the heart as it contains omega-3 fatty acids which are considered acids that are necessary for human health. Fishes help protect the heart by improving the good cholesterol in the body and giving the heart an overall protective effect.

2. The fish is a very good source of zinc and iron. Inclusion of fish in your diet moisturizes the skin and gives it suppleness and leaves a difference in the complexion of the skin.
3. Being a seafood, the fish contains a rich amount of iodine which the body needs to function properly everyday.

4. Fish contains omega-3 fatty acids which according to research has been considered “Brain food” as it helps the young brain develop and protect it against diseases.


5.Pregnant women are advised to eat cooked seafood, as it supports the brain and teeth development of the unborn child.
