Consuming at least one serving of fatty fish per week is associated with a significantly lower risk of death from ischemic heart disease in adults aged 65 and older.
If you are 65 or older, aim to eat at least one serving of fatty fish (like salmon or mackerin) every week. This specific habit is linked to a significantly lower risk of dying from heart disease in older adults. Avoid frying the fish, as that preparation method does not offer the same protective benefits.
consumption of at least one serving of fatty fish per week is associated with a lower risk of death from ischemic heart disease in persons aged 65 years and older.
Why this rating
Prospective cohort study with large sample size (3968) and adjustment for multiple confounders, though observational design limits causal inference.
