WHERE DO YOU GET YOUR OMEGA-3'S

Where do you get your omegas?
You can count on salmon and tuna, yes. But don't sell yourself short.
Omega-3's are found in a variety of fish—and they're essential for
the heart and brain. Here, we've got the top seven sources,
from Debora Yost's book, "Heal Your Heart with Wine and Chocolate."
Omega-3 amounts are per 4-ounce serving.

Herring: 2,347 mg
Sardines: 1,786 mg
Salmon: 1,473 mg
Mackerel: 1,273 mg
Trout: 1,213 mg
Halibut: 933 mg
Tuna: 785 mg

The American Heart Association recommends two servings of fish a week to prevent heart disease. So go wild. And please take that literally. Wild-caught fish have fewer contaminants—and more nutrients—than farmed fish.
