Fish Facts...FISH as a beauty treatment-who knew....... The omega-3 fatty acids DHA and EPA found in fatty
fish may shield cell walls from free-radical damage caused by UV rays,
according to a 2009 study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.
Omega-3s also help to prevent skin cancer by reducing inflammatory compounds
that can promote tumor growth, says Homer S. Black, Ph.D., professor emeritus
in the Department of Dermatology at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston.
Those same fish may help keep your skin looking youthful, too, as EPA has been
shown to preserve collagen. Nutritionists suggest that we aim to eat two
servings of fatty fish each week: not only are the omega-3s good for your heart,
they're good for your skin too.
