The World Healthiest Foods – Part VI – Seafood
Seafood – Cod
Cod
Cod is the common name for genus Gadus, belonging to the family Gadidae, same family as haddock and pollack, feeding feed on molluscs, crabs, starfish, worms, squid, and small fish and weight about 5–12 kilograms (11–26 lb). Pacific or saltwater cod are also found around the coast of British Columbia, Canada and the northwestern US coastal areas. These fish are three times the size of their eastern counterparts and are darker in color. According to the Monterey Bay Aquarium, the “best choices” for sustainability are Atlantic cod, from Iceland and the Northeast Arctic and Pacific cod, from Alaska.

Health Benefits
1. Vitamin B12
Although vitamin B12 is a water solute vitamin, it does not secrete fast through urinary but stored in kidney, liver and other body tissues for future used in case of deficiency . Besides maintaining healthy nerves cells and red blood cells, it also promotes healthy wall of arteries and vein, thus reducing the risk of heart diseases and stroke.
2. Cholesterol
Cod contains high levels of good cholesterol which lowers triglycerides and increases HDL cholesterol and prevent blood from clotting as it is a good source of anticoagulant.
It also helps to reduce the accumulation of bad cholesterol in the blood stream, thus increasing the blood flow that needs to nourish the body cells and reducing the risk of hypertension and arrhythmia.
3. Menstrual cramps and pain
Imbalance of Omega 3 and 6 fatty acids increases the risk of over production of prostaglandin hormone, leading to excessive movement of the abdominal muscles, causing menstrual cramps and pain.
4. Immune system
Since Omega 3 fatty acid helps to enhance the immune function in fighting against the foreign invasion such as virus and bacteria by producing specific antibodies to battle, destroy and then remove from your system, that reduce the risk of infection and inflammation, including rheumatoid arthritis that causes joint stiffness and pain.
5. Calcium
Researcher found that Omega 3 also improves the digestive system in calcium absorption, thus increasing the bone density resulting in lessening the risk of osteoporosis due to the effect of EPA and GLA.
6. Antioxidant
Selenium contains high amount of selenium, one of most powerful antioxidant helps to aid pregnant women with health fetus development, enhances the function of pancreas in production of insulin, increases the production of sperm quality and quantity and protects against the hardening of arteries and promotes the immune function infighting against forming of free radicals.
7. Etc.
Side effects
1. Allergic effect
2. Purines
Excess accumulation of purines can cause kidney stone due to accumulation of uric acid.
3. Omega 3 fatty acids can become oxidized from heat, light, and oxygen.
Seafood – Shrimp
Shrimp
Unlike their close relative, lobsters and crayfish, shrimp are swimming decapod crustaceans classified in the family of Animalia, lived in both fresh and salt water, are found in any continent around the world.

Shrimp once were thought to contain high levels of bad cholesterol, causing clot up and harden the arterial wall and vein of blood vessel. Today new study found out that shrimp contain high levels of Omega 3 fatty acids, which not only help to balance the omega 6 fatty acids to reduce the production of prostaglandin hormone that causes menstrual cramps and pain but also promotes blood flow to the reproductive organ by reducing the LDL cholesterol in the blood stream.
2. Heart diseases and stroke
As the levels of bad cholesterol increasing, the walls arteries and vein hardening, it may cause break off small vein or blocked off large arteries and veins, causing stroke and heart disease.
3. Hypertension
As the bad cholesterol clotted up the arteries and vein, it increases the function of heart in blood circulation by increasing the pressure. Omega 3 fatty acids eliminate the bad cholesterol, thus decreasing the risk of high blood pressure.
4. Antioxidants
Shrimp contains high levels of selenium, it is one most powerful antioxidant that affects the DNA repairing and synthesis in damaged cells by inhibiting the spread and growth of cancer cells.

7. Etc.
Side effects
1. Allergic reactions
2. Purines
Excess intake of shrimp can cause the accumulation of purines in the body, leading to high levels of uric acid.
