One of the top brain foods you can have in your diet is fish. This brain food, also in pill form, is a good source of omega-3 fatty acids that the body alone cannot produce. Recently, scientists from UCLA further discovered that omega-3 fatty acid docosahexaenoic acid, or DHA, increases the production of a protein called LR11, which is known to destroy the beta amyloid plaques that are associated with Alzheimer’s. A fish diet may possibly be a deterrent against this debilitating neurodegenerative disease. With that said, take care of that brain of yours by eating right and exercising, both physically and mentally.

I’d rather have fish fat pills, because fishes have heavy metals and other toxic stuff in their organisms, due to sea and rivers pollution.
Try Swedish Fish! Or Norweigian fish. They are wonderful sources of nutrition.
There is rumor that salmon fish now poluted by some chemical that cause danger to body, is that true? because Almost everyday I eat salmon fish
If you are eating fish oil-that is neccessarily derived from fish-then you are eating whatever was in the fish, only now broken down to just the oil. (or squeezed out, I don’t know how they do it).
So if that fish has mercury and other metals-which I guess all fish in the wild now do, they can’t escape it-thank you everybody-so does the fish oil.
Also, fish oil is under no regulation, (health supplements aren’t-at least in the US) so be careful anyway-if it’s unregulated who knows what’s in it? It’s never tested by anyone to ensure it;s what the company says it is.
Before anyone replies that it is regulated or the companies take great care to ensure quality-they aren’t required to, so just like the banks having less than stellar regulation, at least some won’t have high quality.
