Fish is a healthy, low-fat source of protein that contains essential omega-3 fatty acids. Adding omega-3 fatty acids to your diet can help lower your blood cholesterol and reduce your risk of cardiovascular disease. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends you eat at least 8 oz. of seafood each week, especially fatty fish like salmon, to get a healthy dose of omega-3 fatty acids. Baking is an easy and healthy way to cook a fish without adding high amounts of other fats to the dish.
