7/3/2017 0 Comments nothing fishy with fish foodsIs there a magic food that takes only a few minutes to prepare, can enhance your kid’s brain and heart health with ample protein? The answer is a big yes! Fish does this and many things more. Many families are unaware of this power food, some of them are put off by the smell of fish or some have just not eaten it and hence are not attracted by its taste. A thumbs-up sign from parents about serving and eating fish would make their kids go for it as well. This is because of the important fact that parents are a child’s first role model and a child is completely influenced by his/her parents. For more information on the different ways in which parents can have a positive influence on their children, visit the website www.firsteatright.com. Explore these tips given to make fish a regular part of your diet. Start with Mild Fishes Nutritionists/dietitians recommend consuming fish, rich in omega-3 fats, at least twice a week. Consuming these fats, present mostly in seafood, helps to maintain a healthy heart, brain and eyes. Though everyone in the family may not like the taste of it with a single preparation, cooking it in various ways may develop an interest in your child to try fish. Health experts advocate to start with mild fishes such as tilapia, sole or halibut. Smells Fishy Fishes fresh from the sea smell of salt, just like the sea. If they smell otherwise, which is disliked by anyone, you can be sure that the fish is no longer fresh. Seafood, unlike meat, spoils rapidly and must be consumed within a day or two of purchase.
