Tuna (especially bluefin or albacore)
✅ Health Benefits:

Heart health: Omega-3s help lower blood pressure, reduce triglycerides, and prevent heart disease.

Brain function: DHA (a type of omega-3) supports cognitive function and may reduce risk of dementia.

🍽️ How Often?
Most health organizations recommend eating 2 servings of fatty fish per week (about 3.5 oz per serving).
If you have dietary restrictions or specific health goals, I can suggest fish types or alternatives like omega-3 supplements. Want help with recipes or meal ideas?
