If you’re like most people, you’ve probably spent the last decade counting your fat grams because of studies that linked a high-fat diet to an increased risk of heart disease and cancer. But in your zeal to eat right, you may have eliminated some good fats in the process, notably decosahexaenoic acid (DHA), an essential fatty acid that cannot be manufactured by the body. DHA is found in foods that many people have given up in the name of good health, such as organ meats (which are high in both saturated fat and toxins) and eggs (which may be too high in cholesterol for people with lipid problems). It is also abundant in fatty fish, like salmon, mackerel, sardines, and albacore tuna; why do we need DHA? DHA is found in high concentration in the gray matter of the brain and the retina of the eye. It is also instrumental in the function of brain cell membranes, which are important for the transmission of brain signals.
