A new study from the University of Bristol reveals that children who eat fish twice a week tend to be more sociable, kind, and less self-centered.
The research found that children who eat no fish are 35% more likely to show below-average behavioural development by age seven.
The study highlights the importance of seafood, rich in nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids, for children’s cognitive development.
Despite the findings on behaviour, no link was found between seafood intake and IQ, but experts do recommend parents to include more fish in their children’s diet for better behavioural outcomes.
