Are fish oil supplements just as beneficial to brain health as fresh fish?
A. “Fresh fish has more nutrients than fish oil supplements, and so fresh fish is generally preferable.” Increasing your fish consumption has the benefit of replacing meat and poultry meals (higher in saturated fatty acids SFAs) resulting in an overall reduction of SFAs. And finally, fresh fish is considered to have a high satiety value whereas fish supplements have little satiety value and thus would tend to increase your daily caloric intake.
