British researchers were led by Dr. Amanda Adler from Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge.

The study focused on a total of 22,000 middle-aged men and women for the study.

Out of the 22,000, 517 of the men and women had developed diabetes.

Researchers found that the adults who consumed fish twice a week were able to prevent kidney disease.

This was due to the fact that they had far less protein in their urine.

Overall, kidney disease was developed in 18% of adults with diabetes who did not eat fish, compared to 4% who ate fish regularly.
