Salmon tops the new US Functional Foods list (because of its Omega 3 content) which is a real problem because salmon also tops the unsustainable fish list. So while the functional food approach educates people about nutrition, it ignores the bigger picture. It seems impossible to get it right!
Other less endangered fish are equally rich in Omega 3 - like sardines & pilchards & mackerel - it depends where you are in the world as to whether these are OK sustainability-wise.
The other 4 foods: oats, blueberries, low fat milk, low fat yoghurt.
