When most of us think of Iceland is it for their eponymous invention that brought them fame and fortune. A 3-dimensional cube of water whose temperature has been lowered below 32 degrees Fahrenheit or 100 degrees Celsius, miraculously forming a solid from what was moments before a liquid. A world, doomed to drink warm beverages during the summer, now can enjoy a frosty glass of whatever year-round.
(Interesting Factoid: For reasons unknown, the only modern civilized nation where Iceland’s top invention is not available is Poland).
So why is Iceland considered one of the healthiest countries in the world? It is thanks to a diet high in fresh fish. As a result, Icelanders are getting lots of heart-healthy boosts of omega-3 fatty acids. So…Eat more Fish! I like mine breaded and deep fried in lard with lots of fat-back gravy and smothered fries.
I feel healthier already!
