FISH: ultimate brain food?

Why most Culipapanians proud to say “ang produkto sang barongoy maalam gid” (flying fish products are really brainy). Bakit nga ba? Anong connection ng barongoy sa quality ng brains meron tayo?

As I remember pag may mga competitions in sports and in academic especially sa district meet or area meet, most competitors would really say “hirap talunin pag taga-Culipapa ang kasangga mo”. Bakit gifted ba mga taga-culipapa at di nawawalan ng mga pambato sa anomang larangan ng competitions every year?

Tapos when you’ve grown up from Culipapa and had your primary and secondary school education thereon, and later on been to any colleges…most of us would really say ‘am proud to be Culipapanians and am lucky that I had my high school there’. Huh? Talaga? Anong meron ba sa Culipapa at sa CNHS at ganyan tayo pag lumayo tayo sa lugar natin?

Simple lang ang kasagutan ng lahat na yan…it’s because of one common thing that we have in our place…the barongoy. Oo, barongoy ang number one reason bakit matatalino mga taga-Culipapa. It means “you are what you eat” kumbaga.

Does fish improve intelligence? Yes, fish is brain food. There were lots of studies and claiming that fish is the best and ultimate brain food. It helps our brain cells not to be deteriorated or damage. Thus mental capacity and capability really improves as time goes by.

It’s been observed and studied that fish may be brain food for teenage boys. (Hehehehe…still on study why only boys at bakit no records studies for females…back to topic). Including fish on teenage boys’ diet would notice remarkably after 3 years that superior mental scores among adolescent.

Eating fish at least once a week would slows mental declination or protect against cognitive declination associated with aging, because fish consumption prevents brain infarcts. Thus eating fish keeps older people brainy. How much more to the people of Culipapa eh starting from our breakfast, to lunch, and to our supper or dinner eh puro isda ang nasa hapag kainan natin. We almost eat fish at most of our meals in the whole week. Kung nakakapagpatalino ang fish even having it at least once a week, eh anong talino pa meron tayo o ang maidadagdag sa atin kung isda lage kinakain natin?

Eat fatty fish to prevent dementia. Eating tuna and other fatty fish helps decrease the risk of stroke. Eating fatty fish is not like eating fatty meats like pork, chickens, beef, etc. Fatty fish or fish oils contains omega3 which is good for our heart and brain, and it reduce inflammation throughout the body. (Hmmm…sarap ng belly ng bangus…hahahaha)

Here are some benefits from fish:

* it improves memory and makes you smarter

* you’ll have healthy heart thus preventing from stroke

* prevent depression

* prevent from getting Alzheimer disease,

*prevent cancer

* good for pregnant woman because it has benefits on baby’s brain development

So back to our topic above…

Therefore, students are not only maintaining but further improving their mental status every now and then. And in connection, we are lucky and proud that we have brainy teacher that makes or made us more intelligent. Matalino na nga sila eh napapanatili pa talino at teaching skills nila throughout the years which made us more competitive inside and outside Culipapa.

Ngayon alam na natin bakit anong meron sa barongoy at matatalino mga taga-Culipapa

Congratulations Culipapanhons and thank you barongoy...
