EATING tuna and other fatty fish may help to prevent memory loss and reduce the risk of stroke, researchers said yesterday.
People who ate baked or broiled, but not fried, fish high in omega-3 fatty acids have been found to be less likely to have "silent" brain lesions that can cause memory loss and dementia and are linked to risk of stroke.

Omega-3 acids are also found in salmon, mackerel, herring and sardines, and in foods such as walnuts. They have been shown to provide an anti-inflammatory effect and have been linked to a lower risk of heart disease.

D'oh! we all should know this aswell,

But remember too much tuna could be harmful, you may get 'radiation poisoning' from all the under-sea nucular tests carried out, from years past!

Mind you,..you could well,..'Glow-in-the-Dark'!

Apologies for the multiple postings above - some quirk on the website, evidently.
