Salmon

Salmon

This is one of the best types of fish you can ever consume because it is filled with many different nutrients at the same time and has one of the greatest counts of omega 3 fatty acids. Omega 3 is an essential fatty acid that serves as a substrate for many enzymes in the body. We covered in the introductory remarks how cholesterol can be good or bad. The same happens with fats. They are important in our body, but we must consume high-quality sources with greater omega 3 content. Omega 3 favors HDL production over LDL, and 100 grams of salmon have near 1500 mg of omega 3 fatty acids.
