      How Eating Fish Keeps You Healthy


      Seafood is a nutritious protein source with little artery-clogging saturated
      fat. And the fat that's in seafood is the kind you want to eat - even in a
      low-fat diet.

      A "fatty" fish still has less fat than the "leanest" red meat. Better yet, the fat
      in fish is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which help prevent heart attacks -
      and sometimes reduce the risk dramatically. As little as one weekly serving
      of fish can cut a middle-aged adult's chances of a fatal heart attack by as
      much as 50 percent. But seafood's not just good for your heart. Eating fish
      rich in omega-3 helps:

      Improve brain and eye development in infants and children.

      Reduce diabetes risk, in part by lowering blood triglycerides levels. Diets
      low in omega-3 fatty acids may also contribute to insulin resistance, a risk
      factor for developing diabetes. Omega-3 fatty acids also help make cell
      membranes more fluid so they're better able to respond to insulin receptors.

      Inhibit hormone-like processes that can increase cancer risk.

      Bolster your body's ability to process serotonin, which can help relieve a
      tendency toward depression. When the brain lacks sufficient concentrations
      of omega-3 fatty acids, the cells can't properly process serotonin. Perhaps
      a fish dinner is the real "happy meal."

      Addition by Subtraction

      Seafood reduces the risk of heart disease in several interrelated ways. The
      first is by substitution: Selecting fish or shellfish (instead of red meat or cheese)
      as your protein source cuts your saturated fat intake. This helps depress blood
      levels of harmful LDL cholesterol, and thus, your risk of heart disease.

      Resist the urge to cook your seafood in butter. Doing so adds saturated fat.
      Avoid introducing trans fats by having it fried - almost all "vegetable oils" used
      for commercial deep-fat frying are partially hydrogenated and contain
      artery-clogging trans fats. Cook seafood at home with small amounts of
      canola or olive oil - or no added fat.

      The Omega-3 Effect

      Why is seafood good for your heart? The answer is closely tied to its
      omega-3 fatty acids. These unique polyunsaturated fatty acids:

      Raise levels of beneficial HDL, which protects against heart disease.

      Reduce blood levels of triglycerides, the blood fats that raise the risk of both
      heart disease and diabetes. Omega-3 fatty acids instruct our genes to produce
      less of an enzyme that's essential for making fat, resulting in reduced levels of
      blood triglycerides.

      Reduce the tendency of blood to form artery-clogging clots. Omega-3 fatty
      acids act as natural anticoagulants, altering the ability of blood platelets to
      clump together. With fewer "sticky" platelets, clots are less likely to form.

      Help prevent heart arrhythmias that can lead to sudden cardiac death. The
      U.S. Physicians' Health Study, for example, found that during the course
      of 11 years, men who ate fish once a week were at least 40% less likely
      to die from sudden cardiac death.

      Slow the progression of existing coronary heart disease. In one 24-month
      study of people who have had a heart attack, those who ate fish at least
      twice a week were 29 percent less likely to have another.
