3. Salmon
Omega-3 fatty acids are essential for your overall health. Eat more salmon, lake trout, herring, sardines, albacore tuna, and mackerel to take advantage of these healthy fatty acids. The American Heart Association recommends consuming two servings per week.
Salmon, which is high in omega-3s, contains natural blood-thinning and anticoagulant properties, says Brooke Alpert, RD, dietitian, and founder of B Nutritious in New York City. “This allows for an improvement in circulation for your entire body,” she says. Alpert recommends choosing wild-caught salmon whenever possible.
