Fishy Facts
For those of us who are no longer pregnant (nor planning to be again) it’s too late for us to take advantage of new research finding that mums who eat fish give birth to brainier kids but the info about mercury found in tinned tuna is still useful. And here’s a link to a whole host of info on Omega-3’s in fish oil and their benefits to breastfeeding & pregnant women.
And if you’re trying to get more oily cold water fish into your diet, here are some links to some delicious sounding ways to prepare salmon:
- Roasted Salmon with Maple Glaze from the Mayo Clinic’s Healthy Recipe section
- Monte Cristo Salmon Sandwich from Dr. Weil’s Healthy Kitchen section
- Serving suggestions for Wild Salmon from Whole Foods
Hint: All these sites have heaps of great health information and Whole Foods has a great section on maternal health and feeding kids as well. Speaking of Whole Foods if anyone knows when the Cambie location will be opening up please let me know, my pocketbook will shrink but my tummy will be happy!

I just have to say this was doubtlessly one of the most intelligent blurbs I’ve had the chance to view on the topic so far. I do not understand where you gather up all of your info but up! I’m going to send a few people to this site to read this. Fantastic, totally amazing. I am have just started getting into writing articles myself, nothing compared to your writing skills (doh) but I’d love for you to check out my work in progress someday! bowflex
