The American Heart Association, as well as other health organizations, suggests we eat at least two servings of fish each week.  That’s because fish is low in saturated fat while being a good source of protein and omega-3 fatty acids that can help keep your heart and blood vessels healthy.  Of course the type of fish you choose is important.  Baked salmon is good, but fried fish filets aren’t so good because your healthy fish has been surrounded with a fat-soaked batter.
