Eat Fish for a Healthy Heart

When I was a kid, people use to say that fish was "brain food," which meant that it made you smarter. I don't that think I ate a piece of fish until I was nearly 20 years old...so I hope that the brain food thing isn't true!

There has been plenty of research regarding fish, its omega-3 fatty acids, and heart health. There is some good evidence that eating baked and broiled fish is good for your heart health while fried fish is not (not too surprising, is it?) Here is an article that talks a bit about the benefits of baked and broiled fish:

You will find many baked and broiled fish options in Dining Services this summer. Some examples of these dishes include: Mahi Mahi Veracruz, Tuscan Tuna Melt, and Herb Crusted Tilapia.

Happy eating!
