A study by a team of international researchers has found out that people who eat a variety of oily fish such as sardines, salmon and mackerel have a less chance of developing heart diseases. The reason behind this is that marine foods are enriched with omega-3 fatty acids, which is known to reduce the risk of heart problems.


But the researchers considerably warned people of going for fish-oil supplements.
