New York: Making sure fish ends up on your dinner plate a couple of times a week may be a good way to cut your risk for developing heart disease, but it may not do the same for diabetes, new study findings hint. 

In the study, researchers found no evidence of reduced risk for diabetes among adults who ate more fish, or the essential omega-3 fatty acids obtained primarily from seafood.Rather, their findings suggest that eating 2 or more servings of fish a week may slightly increase diabetes risk. 
 

Dr Frank B Hu, at Harvard School of Public Health in Boston, Massachusetts, and colleagues examined ties between fish and omega-3 fatty acid intake and the development of diabetes among 152,700 women enrolled in the Nurses Health Study and 42,504 men enrolled in the Health Professionals Follow-Up Study.
