The American Heart Association advises eating fish high in unsaturated fats at least twice a week. All types of fish are excellent sources of protein, vitamins, and minerals. However, fatty fish are particularly rich in omega-3 fatty acids. These omega-3s, along with other nutrients found in fish, can enhance heart health and may decrease the likelihood of dying from heart disease.

Omega-3 fatty acids are a form of unsaturated fat that may help reduce inflammation throughout the body. Chronic inflammation can damage blood vessels, potentially leading to heart disease and stroke.

Omega-3 fatty acids may:

Contribute to heart health by slightly reducing blood pressure.

Decrease levels of triglycerides in the blood.

Lower the risk of irregular heart rhythms.

Aim to consume at least two servings of fish each week, particularly those rich in omega-3 fatty acids. This practice seems to diminish the risk of heart disease, especially sudden cardiac death.

Various types of seafood provide small amounts of omega-3 fatty acids, but fatty fish contain the highest levels and appear to offer the greatest heart benefits.

Some excellent options for omega-3-rich fish include:

Salmon

Sardines

Atlantic mackerel

Cod

Herring

Lake trout

Canned, light tuna
