The study was carried out by researchers at Grand Forks Human Nutrition Research Center, the University of Minnesota, and the University of North Dakota.
Overall, the findings suggested that consuming salmon twice every week affects lipoprotein particle size and concentration in a manner associated with cardiovascular disease risk reduction.
