The 5 Fish You Should Be Eating Now

  Reason #1: Reduces Inflammation
Omega-3s found in fish also help to regulate your body's inflammation cycle, which prevents and relieves painful conditions like arthritis. 
Sardines are not always at the top of the list when someone wants to make fish, but this dish using honey and vinegar creates an interesting and flavorful sauce that will make even the most adverse like it.

 Reason #2: Promotes Cardiovascular Health
By reducing inflammation, fish also help to improve blood vessel elasticity and help lower bad cholesterol, reducing the risk of heart disease and stroke. 

A simple compote of leeks, fennel, and celery makes this dish a star and proves that a few simple ingredients like garlic, white wine, and butter, go a long way with fish.

 Reason #3: Fights Dementia
Studies have shown that elderly people who eat fish or seafood at least once a week have a chance of lowering the risk of dementia, most specifically Alzheimer's disease. 

This is a very rustic approach to cooking with a sophisticated fish. The rehydrated cod brings flavor to a potato casserole filled with simple ingredients like basil, garlic, and tomatoes.

 Reason #4: Improves Your Eyesight
Studies have shown that the fatty acid found in fish strengthens eye cell membranes and provides structural support to your eyes. 

This shrimp is a spin on the Italian classic, breaded in crunchy panko and dressed with tomato sauce and savory cheeses. You'll find the shrimp is a more tender and flavorful approach to the usually chicken dish.

 Reason #5: Helps Fight Diabetes
A study conducted in 2011 showed that eating fish helps lower glucose levels and creates a smaller risk of developing diabetes. 

This is a great dish to impress your dinner guests with, and it's a fairly easy way to cook fish. If you want to experiment with the flavors of your dish, try using different seasonings beyond fennel seeds.
