There are so many benefits to eating seafood. Depending on the type of seafood you are eating, they are a terrific source of Vitamins A, B and D. Fish are also rich in Omega-3 fatty acids, which is good for your heart. Those fatty acids are also good for your joints. And not just your joints, fatty acids have been proven to help increase brainpower and may even lower your risk of acquiring Alzheimer’s Disease.

National Seafood Month was proclaimed by Congress over 30 years ago to recognize one of this country’s oldest industries. Today, the seafood industry employs more than 250,000 people and adds over $60 billion to the US economy.
