longer life because of fish

I have read about the hypothesis that you will live longer if you eat lots of fish. It is said that the Greenland Inuits had the lowest incidence of heart disease and that this was a reason of eating a lot of fish. Do you know if this is really true? Or have you ever heard of other comparable hypothesis like this?

All I've ever heard is that fish is good for you

If eating lots of it means I won't get heart disease.....w00t

Very true. Omega 3 fish oils are great for the heart. Fish is very lean as well compared to the meat that most people eat.....and protein is good for ya anyway.

Re: longer life because of fish

Okay seems like we should all eat more fish. Actually I am eating it not very often. I guess I should really change this. Is there a difference between different kinds concerning the health? I mean living longer is really great but still I want to lose some weight and I am sure that there are some fishes which you should aviod during a diet, aren't there?

Re: longer life because of fish

Just don't eat a ton of canned tuna and you'll be OK I would skip the fried fish as well of course. As far as I'm aware of (I'm not a huge fish person), I would just keep an eye out for very fatty fish, and beware of eating undercooked (raw) fish as that does pose health risks in itself.
