Salmon has a multitude of positive health benefits for women. Not only is it rich in iron - which is integral to the diets of premenopausal women — but it is packed with omega-3 fatty acids, known for their mood-enhancing effects. Studies have suggested that omega-3 can help beat depression (something that affects twice as many women as men) and prevent mood swings, while salmon can also boost babies` intelligence when eaten during pregnancy.
