INTERESTING FACT

Eating Just Fish Could be Mortal

Fish has all essential amino acids that humans need to survive. However, we could die if we had only fish in our diet. This is because fish has no Vitamin C which is crucial for human survival. Even today we use few drops of lemon when eating cooked fish. Only fish that consumes plankton has vitamin C, but only way to properly extract it is to eat fish raw with the contents of their intestines.

Eating raw fish that has plankton in its stomach. That is the only way to receive vitamin C from fish.

It is much easier to have orange juice or cabbage salad with your cooked fish :) Today this is not problem because we consume Vitamin C on daily basis, but people used to die on boats or on islands where they consumed only fish.

I really love the FACT ( pun,) that you have given me a chance of liking the Internet with these facts ! Fish oils work in conjunction with good cholestrol , which acts as a conduit for the omega 3 ! Fat = superconductive , therefore we can say that the brain has the most electrical impulses as do the bones in the body !

People died at sea cause we also need other nutrients not obtained from fish. We need vegtables for different vitamins or we would get the rickets as all the old sea fairers.
