Beyond the exhilaration Key West charter fishing guests experience while reeling in a catch of a lifetime, eating your catch can bring long lasting health benefits. Fish are packed with nutrients. Fish fuels your body with protein, vitamins, minerals, and omega-3 fatty acids. Fish is not only delicious, but has been found to support the cardiovascular system and prevent heart disease.
A Harvard study found that eating two servings of fish each week can reduce dying of heart disease by more than one-third. Omega-3 fatty acids in fish help protect the heart, lower blood pressure, and improve blood vessel functioning. Another study found that these omega-3 fats in fish are important during pregnancy for a baby’s brain and nervous system development.
