Swedish Study Targets Fish and Adolescent Brains

The following excerpt is from an article by Seafood.com. news/Dartmouth, NS, July6/PRNewswire/..... "According to a new study published in Acta Paediatrica,.... 15 year old males who ate fish at least once a week had higher cognitive skills at age 18 than those who ate it less frequently.  ...When the young men ate fish more than once a week, their combined intelligence scores were, on average, almost 11 percent higher than those who ate fish less than once a week.  ...Researchers believe this is the first large scale study to explore the benefits of fish consumption on adolescents. "  The study goes on to demonstrate that Omega3-EPA/DHA from fish oil is important for our bodies and minds not just when we are young or older, but throughout our lives as well.
