Ukmedix is proud of the fact that it keeps very up to date on the latest diet and weight loss research that is happening all around the world and recentlyit has recieved reports on 2 new diet studies that show the importance of eating a little fish in your diet. The studies show that by eating a diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids that are found in oily fish like salmon and tuna it could be possible to prevent the likelyhood of macular degeneration with age that eventually can cause blindness.

Ukmedix has reported on the studies that show that a diet with omega-3 fatty acids can really help the heart and the brain as is seen in people who follow a Mediterranean diet and these new studies which appeared in the Archives of Ophthalmology Journal  show a new benefit for this essential nutritional food stuff. Omega-3 fatty acids are not just found in fish but are just very abundant in certain types of fish and thus are often part of good diet advice. Eating nuts and certain vegetables can also help you get the required amounts of the essential fatty acid.

Previous studies that have looked at long term health show that the Meditearranean people who eat alot of fresh fruit and vegetables as well as fish two or three times weekly have been shown to have healthy hearts in old age and low cholesterol levels. Ukmedix has seen hundreds of research reports into the benefits of various diets and recommends that a varied, sensible and balanced diet is the best and warns all of its patients that fad diets may sound like fun and look easy but they always seem to fail in the long term.

Eating fish on a regular basis is a good idea as it is full of protein, omega-3 fatty acids and may in the long term (according to this latest research) help you with your eyesight in the long term.
