Baked or Broiled Fish Can Protect Women from Heart Failure

Heart conditions that result in an individual becoming disabled may qualify them for long-term disability benefits.

In a report from Health Day, a new study suggests that baked or broiled fish can help protect women from heart failure. Fish has always been shown to have many health benefits but this latest research, conducted over a 10-year period and following more than 84,000 women who were postmenopausal, reveals even greater benefits.

It was discovered that women who consumed 5 or more servings a week of baked or broiled fish had a 30% decreased risk of heart failure, in comparison to women who consumed 1 serving or less per month.

The findings of this research point to not only the benefits of a diet rich in fish but also indicate how it is prepared could also make a difference. This is important since consuming fried fish on a regular basis increases the chance of stroke and heart failure.

The research also found that dark fish such as bluefish, mackerel and salmon lowered the risk of heart failure even more than white fish or tuna.

The study also found that baked or broiled fish lowered the risk of other types of cardiovascular diseases, high blood pressure and diabetes.
