Recent research finally confirms you may reduce your risk of Alzheimer’s Disease (not to mention heart disease and a whole host of other nasties) by adding Omega 3 fish oils to your diet.
Fish — particularly oily fish is known as “brain food” for a good reason, because the nutrients it provides are known to improve mental function, such as mood, memory and considerable success has been demonstrated in the treatment of depression, anxiety and bi-polar disorder as well as ADD. There is also some evidence that it can assist in minimizing dyslexia.
As you know, I don’t advocate commercial fish oil capsules – and only a very few other supplements — because I prefer you get your nutrients as close as possible to the original source. The reason for this is, despite our increasing knowledge of the vital nutrients in food, we still fail to understand the delicate interaction between the whole if we try and isolate just one or two elements.
So why bother with fish oil capsules, when you can have the real, mouthwatering taste of wild Alaskan salmon on your plate?
I am a particular fan of wild Alaskan Salmon, which is my staple mid-day fodder, three times a week.
Not only is this species wild, so you get the firmness of flesh, quality and taste only to be found with wild fish which battle the strong ocean currents and feed on natural food, but Alaskan salmon fishing is carefully regulated to be sustainable.
And if you can’t get the fresh item, when in season, you can get canned salmon all year round. Cooking the salmon in a sealed can is exactly like the way I advocate you cook your salmon in my famous video — sealed in an aluminum parcel to retain all the goodness and flavor.
And, no. I don’t receive a single red cent from Alaskan salmon fishermen!
