Many people are afraid to eat fish because of the mercury in it. Well some fish does not have as much mercury as others. You do need fish in your diet because there are many benefits to it. As Americans we do not eat enough fish as it is which is a problem.

Fish is considered one of the most power-packed foods for a healthy diet. It is an excellent source of Omega-3 fatty acids, which are known to prevent a huge range of diseases. Read on to know how:

1. Depression - Eating fish will actually lower depression. The Omega-3 fatty acids in fish also help to work against depression. Serotonin is released to the brain which makes you become happier.

2. Fights off Alzheimer's - Many people are worried that with old age they will get Alzheimer's and one way to prevent this from happening is eating fish. Through eating fish you are actually lessening the risk of damaging brain cells through the polyunsaturated fatty acids. With that happening you are less susceptible of getting dementia.

3. Skin - A benefit that many know about fish is that it can actually do wonders for your skin. Fish has products in it that actually stop wrinkling, prevent aging and overall making ones skin look younger.

4. Asthma - In children, especially, the risk of asthma gets greatly reduced if they are given a regular diet of fish. Fish is rich in protein, making up for a lot of nutritious components required during the period of growing up.

I can agree with these benefits of fish because I eat fish once or twice a week. So if you are looking to become healthy and reduce your chance of getting the above named disease, I definitely recommend adding fish to your diet.
