Have you misplaced your keys?Can't figure out where you have put that book?Study have shown that you may be able to overcome all these by eating more fish.And the more fish you eat the greater the effect,according to reserch conducted in Norway.
The investigators found that elderly men and women who ate fish frequently scored better on memory,visual conception,spatial motor skills,attention,orientation, and verbal fluecy tests.
"All six cognitive tests were performed better by those who ate fish",principal author Dr. A. David Smith of the University of Oxford,UK stated.He also added that the effect was stronger as fish consumption increased up to a limit of 80 grams per day.
Smith and colleagues assessed cognitive ability and the average daily amount of fish and seafood in the diets of 2,031 men and women,between 70 and 74 years of age,recruited from general population of Western Norway.
Overall,1,951 of the study participants reported eating 10 or more grams per day of fresh,frozen,or canned fish and seafood,or fish products such as cod liver fish oil,the investigators report in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.The remaining 80 participants ate less than 10 grams daily.
Study also showed taht participants who reported more frequent consumption of fatty or lean fish as their main meal performed significantly better in five of the six cognitive tests,compared with those who did not eat fatty or lean fish.
Processed fish or fish sandwiches were likewise associated with better performance on three cognitive tests,the investigators noted.
The investigators propose the need for additional research to determine whether the cognitive benefits from fish and seafood consumption depend on the type,the species of fish or on the preparation.
Secondly, the need to discover what components of fish are important.Since the study discovered that lean fish was as good as fatty fish,it may not just be the omega-3 fatty acids that confer cognitive benefit. solutiontoillhealth.blogspot.com
