What is so good about Salmon? Salmon contains Omega-3 fatty acids which are a family of polyunsaturated fats associated with several health benefits. Omega 3 lowers blood pressure, reduces triglycerides in the blood, helps reduce joint inflammation in rheumatoid disease, great for brain, eyes and mood, helps asthma, migraine, and diabetes, and may reduce the risk and prevent heart disease and ischemic stroke. Fatty fish is the best source of Omega 3 so is great to incorporate into your diet 2 times per week.
