Seafood=Brain FoodResearch shows that the omega-3s

present in seafood may help prevent, delay, or moderate Alzheimer’s disease.

Two of the three main types of omega-3s are often

referred to as marine omega-3s because the richest

source of them is fish: eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).

University Medical Center in Chicago is a great way to protect your brain health as you age. It features

10 “brain-healthy” food groups:

is only 2% of your body’s mass,but uses >20% of your body’s energy

is more than half lipids (fats) by weight, which

explains the importance

of omega-3s in the brain.

Among seafood, salmon has one of the highest levels of omega-3 (EPA and DHA content) per

serving, with 700-900 mg per 4-ounce serving.

The 2015 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend eating at least two servings of seafood per week.

New research from Rush University Medical Center published in the Journal of the American Medical Association in 2016 revealed

fewer signs of Alzheimer’s- related brain changes in people who ate at least one serving of seafood per week.

Swap in tuna or salmon for ground meat in dishes such as tacos, nachos, quesadillas, burgers, meatballs, stuffed peppers, and even pizza.

Try tuna or salmon in sandwiches or paninis. Enjoy tuna, salmon, and other seafood as salad ingredients.

Another reason to eat fish

“People who eat fish every week or who have higher DHA levels in their

blood have had a lower risk of developing dementia or specific signs of brain aging in many studies.” - Alzheimer’s Drug Discovery Foundation
