This is good advice, but I think there are some further offerings which might broaden the possibilities here and also save money.
For example, salmon...very good choice! But is salmon really special? The real issue is fatty fish that is generally healthy, rich in protein, and omega 3 fats. Salmon is not necessarily the most sustainable or healthiest choice--farmed salmon is bad for the environment and can also be lower in omega 3. There are so many healthy fish, rich in omega 3 though...including small, cheaper fish like smelt or sardines. These are also much more affordable to the typical person or family than salmon, which often runs $8-15 a pound.
There are also natural beverages that can reduce stress. You don't want to drink too much as caffeine can be bad for stress, but there is evidence that tea, including regular black tea, can be good for stress. There are also many powerful stress-reducing teas, including tulsi tea, which is used to treat stress in Ayurvedic medicine, and of course chamomile tea--which has been shown in control studies to promote relaxation.
