How are you treating your sweetie this Valentine’s Day? Lovely lingerie? A dozen red roses, perhaps? If you really want to do his (or her) heart good, think fish, not flowers. Cardiac disease is the number one killer of U.S. adults. In honor of American Heart Health Month, help your honey prevent this problem with a diet rich in omega-3’s. Whether from salmon, soybeans or supplements, these essential fatty acids are guaranteed to keep your love alive.
