You can achieve this by eating two to three 150 gram serves of oily fish every week. The Heart Foundation recommends that people with heart disease also supplement their intake with fish oil and omega-3 enriched foods and drinks. Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) are omega-3s that are found primarily in oily fish, such as Australian salmon, blue-eye trevalla, blue mackerel, gemfish, canned sardines, canned salmon and some varieties of canned tuna.
