Fish Consumption and Risk of Stroke:The Zutphen Study Stroke 25:328-332, Keli,S.O.,et al, 1994 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract The mean fish consumption was 17.9 g/d.Men who consumed more than 20 g of fish per day in 1970 had a reduced risk of stroke compared with those who consumed less fish.The hazard ratio(HR)amount to 0.49(95%confidence interval[CI],0.24 to 0.99),and did not change after adjustment for potential confounders.Few strokes occurred among the 301 men who always reported fish consumption between 1960 and 1970 than among the men who changed fish consumption habits between 1960 and 1970 or did not consume fish at all(HR,0.63;95%CI,0.34 to 1.16).These results suggest that consumption of at least one portion of fish per week may be associated with a reduced stroke incidence.
