Which fish is good for brain health?

Fish is one of the most common food in our daily diet. We often eat different kinds of braised fish, steamed fish, etc., each of which can help supplement a variety of nutrients. So if we only consider the brain-boosting and intelligence-enhancing effects, what type of fish has the most obvious effect? Next, let me summarize the relevant information collected and explain them one by one.

1. Hairtail. The content of DHA and polyunsaturated fatty acid EPA is higher than that of freshwater fish. In addition, hairtail is rich in lecithin, which has the function of nourishing the brain. Moreover, hairtail tastes delicious and has few small bones, which can reduce the risk of fish bones getting stuck in the throat. Hairtail is best fried and it tastes better if you spray some cooking wine on it before serving.

2. Salmon. The ω-3 fatty acids (DHA and EPA) contained in salmon are essential substances for the brain, retina and nervous system, and have the effects of enhancing brain function and preventing vision loss. DHA is the main component of the brain, while EPA can improve the regeneration ability of human cells, enhance immunity, and has a strong repair function on the human myocardium. It can help repair brain function and improve memory.

3. Yellow croaker. Yellow croaker is rich in nutrients, containing protein, trace elements and vitamins. It has the effect of nourishing the kidneys and strengthening the brain. It is suitable for people with memory loss caused by kidney deficiency. For people with weak constitution and middle-aged and elderly people, eating yellow croaker will have a good therapeutic effect. Since yellow croaker is a marine fish, it must be kept fresh with ice after being caught, so when selecting it, you must see whether the fish's eyeballs are full, the cornea is transparent and clear, the gill covers are tight, the gills are bright red, and the mucus is transparent and has no odor.

The three kinds of fish mentioned in the article are very easy to buy, and they are healthy foods with low fat and cholesterol, suitable for all kinds of people. Therefore, you can make and eat them frequently in the future. At the same time, you can also change the preparation methods from time to time so that you can achieve more obvious brain-enhancing and intellectual effects.
