Omega 3 fatty acids can be found in fish oil. These are strong anitoxidants that can fight off disease. So if you like pizza then try some with anchovies as they are the source for a large number of anti oxidants used in the fish oils sold for vitamins today. Sardines are also good.

It's something to do with the Omega 3 oil in the fish.
Fish oil contains two omega-3 fatty acids:
Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)
The omega-3 essential fatty acids, particularly EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), has been recognized by researchers as being vitally important to achieving optimal health, energy, and longevity. EPA and DHA are the building blocks for the cells in your vital organs and your body requires these Omega-3s to function properly. Clinical research has shown EPA and DHA support:
A Healthy Heart
A Healthy Brain
Increased Fat Burning!
Balanced Mood
Healthy Joint Movement
Healthy Cholesterol and triglyceride Levels
A Healthy Immune System
Healthy Kidneys
Strength and Stamina

Gave Ron a thumbs up. Just a little advise : the streams and rivers are so polluted it is better to eat fish from DEEP waters.

Fish is an excellent source of protein and minerals that can be found in the sea. It has a very low cholesterol level and the percentage present classifies under good cholesterol and hence helps reduce heart blockage and other heart related issues.

Regular consumption of fish can reduce the risk of various diseases and disorders.
Fish like salmon,sardines,trout and also canned tuna are rich in Omega 3 fatty acids(daily amount:-200-600mg)
Avoid fish high in mercury such as sword fish.marlin and ray.
Mercury affects the nervous system,lead to muscle and joint pain.
