Benefits of Eating Fish

NY Times article entitled "Large Study Points to the Brain Benefits of Eating Fish." This article reviews a large study (15,000 participants) and reveals that those who eat fish have better brain health and lower risk of dementia than those who do not eat fish. This article also mentions research that indicates that higher levels of red meat in diets corresponds with higher rates of dementia. Do you eat fish on a weekly basis? What changes in your diet would you be willing to make now in order to maintain your brain health after age 65?
