Are there any fruits or vegetables that are high in omega-3 fatty acids?

While it is commonly known that fatty fish like salmon and tuna are high in omega-3 fatty acids, it is less well-known that some fruits and vegetables are also good sources of this essential nutrient.

Here are some fruits and vegetables that are high in omega-3 fatty acids:

• Flaxseeds
• Chia seeds
• Walnuts
• Spinach
• Kale
• Brussels sprouts
• Winter squash
• Blueberries

It is important to note that while these foods are good sources of omega-3 fatty acids, they do not provide the same types of omega-3s found in fish, which are called EPA and DHA. Instead, these foods contain a different type of omega-3 called ALA, which the body can convert into EPA and DHA, but not as efficiently as consuming them directly from fish.
