#NationalNutritionMonth Tip # 15 Eat Seafood Twice a Week



Seafood – fish and shellfish – contains a range of nutrients including healthy omega-3 fats. Salmon, trout, oysters and sardines are higher in omega-3s and lower in mercury.

Omega-3 fats are protective against heart disease and stroke and may help prevent cancer.

If cooking fish is intimidating to you, you may wish to purchase it precooked - - many groceries prepare it or you can purchase it canned. I recommend wild-caught seafood. Enjoy it baked and serve with asparagus or broccoli. I frequently top a spinach salad with canned salmon, tomato, carrot, pumpkin seeds, broccoli and a ginger dressing.
