Omega 3 Rich Food #2: Mackerel
No list of omega 3 foods is complete without a mention of our wonderful fatty fishes. 100 grams of mackerel has 2789 mg (2.8 grams) of omega 3. Mackerel is full of EPA and DHA, meaning less work for your body to make the most of your omega 3.
In addition to omega 3, mackerel also contains vitamin B6, magnesium, calcium, potassium, and vitamin D. Potassium improves heart health beyond omega 3s by acting as a vasodilator. In other words, potassium prevents veins and arteries from tightening. Thus, reducing blood pressure and stress on the heart.
