Seafood - For Your Health
With all the hype about red meats and high cholesterol, it's hard to know what's healthy and what isn't. One sure bet - seafood. An article on the Nutrition Blog tells us:
"A new study by the Harvard School of Public Health, believed to be the most comprehensive of its kind, concludes that the consumption of one or two servings of fish per week reduces death from coronary heart disease by 36 per cent, and death from any other health-related cause by 17 per cent. According to the lead researcher from the Harvard team, "Seafood is likely the most important food one can consume for good health."

Nutrition and Fitness Tips offers this warning:
Don't buy frozen seafood if the packages are open, torn or crushed on the edges. Avoid packages that are above the frost line in the store's freezer. If the package cover is transparent, look for signs of frost or ice crystals. This could mean that the fish has either been stored for a long time or thawed and refrozen.
