What’s for dinner tonight? Hopefully fish...
A recent study found that those of us who eat fish on a regular basis live an average of 2.2 years longer than those who don’t. Researchers followed 2,700 men and women age 74 and older for 16 years. They were all relatively healthy and none took fish oil supplements. Sadly, all the participants eventually died, but that was the point of the study. The good news is those who lived the longest had the highest levels of omega-3 in their blood thanks to their fishy diets, giving them the 2+ year edge over those with lower levels.
