3. Vitamin E: anti-aging, anti-oxidation, protects blood vessels, moisturizes skin, and smoothes hair.

In addition, because the fiber structure of fish meat is relatively short, it is easier to chew and swallow than other meats, and it is also easier to digest and absorb for human use.
According to the “Youhuo Health Network” report, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) also recommends that pregnant women, pregnant women, breastfeeding women, and children aged 1 to 11 should eat more fish, including crustaceans, which are Mediterranean Diet is an important part of a healthy diet. Because it is rich in nutrients, such as Omega-3, omega-6, iron, zinc, iodine, choline, protein, vitamin B12, vitamins, selenium, etc., can help the baby’s brain and spinal cord development, children’s immune system and brain development .
So, how much fish should we consume to be enough?
Gao Minmin said that the Taiwan Food and Drug Administration recommends that the public adjust the amount of fish they eat according to age, such as 2 servings per week for children aged 1 to 3; 3 servings per week for children aged 4 to 6; and 3 servings per week for pregnant women. 7 to 9 servings. As for the so-called one portion, it refers to the size and thickness of about three fingers put together. Although eating fish is good, you should still pay attention to the intake of shark, swordfish, tuna, and oily fish. If you want to ingest, pregnant women and women of childbearing age should not exceed 1-2 servings per week, and children under 6 years old should not exceed 1 to 2 servings per month. Do not exceed 1 serving.
Finally, Gao Minmin suggested that whether it is deep-sea fish or freshwater fish, they are rich in nutrients, and you can “take in a balanced amount in turn”!
