Freshwater fish in Czech markets can help prevent heart disease.
The study looked at the fat content in two types of freshwater fish commonly sold in the Czech Republic. They found that both common carp and rainbow trout have high levels of healthy unsaturated fats. These fats can help lower the risk of heart disease. The researchers also calculated two important values, the atherogenic index and thrombogenic index, which were low in both types of fish. This means that eating these fish regularly can be good for your heart health.
