Fatty types of fish are considered the healthiest because they are particularly good sources of vitamin D as well as omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3 fatty acids are essential for your body and brain to function optimally and are strongly linked to a reduced risk of many diseases. Unfortunately, environmental pollutants such as dioxins and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) can accumulate in foods, including...
