Salmon reduce the risk of skin cancer

Salmon reduce the risk of skin cancer - Recent research has found that eating salmon twice a week may protect against skin cancer risk. Omega-3 fatty acids found in fish oil can destroy malignant cells in skin cancer.

This finding could even lead to the development of aerosol or gel containing molecules that can fight skin cancer. Omega-3 fatty acids found in fish, such as mackerel and salmon, can destroy malignant cells in skin cancer.

Experiments found omega-3 fatty acids can kill cells induced in both early and late stages of the disease. "We found omega-3 fatty acids can inhibit the growth of malignant cells and does not affect normal cells healthy," said Professor Kenneth Parkinson, from Queen Mary, University of London, told the Daily Mail.

The findings are published online in the journal Carcinogenesis, which suggests that omega-3 fatty acids can be used with both the treatment and prevention of skin cancer.
