Of several factors used to calculate the brain-healthfulness of the foods each state eats, sales of fish and DHA-fortified foods were weighed most heavily; they made up 10 percent and 12 percent, respectively, of the diet score. Measures of the population's physical health accounted for 25 percent of each state's overall score; mental health accounted for 24 percent; and social well-being 15 percent.


Any surprises for anyone?

well im in Ga... not on the high or the low list... so im in the middle if i stayed in Jersey i may have been a genious by now...

LOL...you are brave putting NJ and the word genius in the same sentence...((ducking Chy's shoe))

Well, I guess being comfortably in the middle means we purchase most of our DHA/fish products from the Highest 10 states--Washington state, Maine, etc.

I'm not surprised to see most of the states listed in the 10 Worst---those poor fish don't see anything but a hot skillet with bubbling grease...

Girl dont mess with Jersey...

i can see South Carolina being on the list... uh oh, my daughter lives there... heeeeee....
