HOW FISH CONSUMPTION IMPACTS BRAIN HEALTH AND IQ

Fish

Fish is rated as one of the best foods for the brain, owing to its high content of omega-3 and retinol (vitamin A), which are powerful antioxidants. Omega-3 fatty acid is  fatty acid found in the brain as Decosahexaenoic acid ( DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid, which are short-chain fatty acids. This makes fish an important food for all. Salmon is one of the best sources of omega-3 fatty acid.

These antioxidants in fish help in sanitizing the brain by removing the free radicals that destroy the cytoskeletons of the brain cells, keeping the brain younger and longer.
