Salmon
Omega-3 fatty acids -- found
in salmon, swordfish, and tuna -- are one of the healthier forms of fat. And now, a study shows that they may also help relieve
depression.The more
fish you
eat, the better you feel. That's the finding of a new study analyzing what science knows about
fish and
depression. People who ate the most
fish had a significantly lower risk of
depression than those who ate the least.The two main types of omega-3 fatty acids found in salmon are eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Both EPA and DHA are found in very high concentrations in brain tissue and play an important role in nerve function and mood regulation.
