2. Salmon

Salmon is packed with protein and nutrients, but it's the fat content that makes most people consider it one of the healthiest foods on the planet. This fish is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, specifically EPA and DHA, which are believed to lower blood pressure , reduce the risk of certain cancers, and decrease inflammation.

While omega-3s are widely available in over-the-counter fish oil capsules, studies show that getting omega-3s from eating fish like salmon is more beneficial.
