As someone who was born in Alaska raised in Washington state I’ll say this farm fed salmon is disgusting I mean really disgusting. There’s nothing I can literally say that would literally defend what it really is or how tasty it is. I’ve tried it and ever since then I’ve always stuck with the wild fresh, caught salmon or any fresh wild caught fish. Having something like that that’s literally from a facility. Fed tablets is just disgusting.

Yes the wild might “taste” be better, and what’s your thought of as human competing the food source against their natural predators tho? Is it even sustainable to keep eating wild but not farmed fish?? And fish digestive pathways are also different to humans too, so things maybe not so good to human might actually be fine with fish too… I just personally support farm raised animals/food more in general

[@NoName-ds5uq]

Here in Tasmania we have a big Atlantic Salmon farming industry. This industry also has an environmental effect from those farms, like pollution threatening endangered ancient species(Maugean Skate for example due to oxygen level drops in Macquarie Harbour). Farmed salmon just seem like any other processed food.

[@walnoemispoyt5604]

From purely just the stand point of nutrients I can concede that you are correct but what I am interested in is whether if you can eat the wild caught fish raw and this for me is where the video fails. Nutrition grade is not the same thing as sushi grade and so yeah I'm still going to buy the farmed fish because it satisfies the sushi grade criteria. I am willing to be convinced if you can show that there does exist a wild caught fish who maintains the nutrients while fulfilling the sushi grade.

[@caroleanne8529]

I feel fortunate that there is a young couple in a nearby town (Idaho) that has their own fishing vessel that they take to Alaska every summer. They basically have a processing plant on board where they flash freeze their catch and sell to people in our area (Fairweather Fish Co.). We have become very spoiled by their coho salmon, cod and spot prawns. I do not know if they ship to other parts of the country.

International factory fishing fleets have been operating over 40 years taking out over 95% of the wild large fish out of the oceans. Salmon have to return and spawn to their river of origin and they don't get back. They're on a plate somewhere in the world. This is about supply and demand. There simply is not enough supply from the wild anymore. No different than an industrialized beef or chicken ranch.

"You're not what you eat, but what you eat ate". Since many meat sources we consume are herbivores (not necessarily fish), why not just eat the plants and cut out the middleman?

[@ResidualSelfImage]

the difference between wild caught and farm raised Atlantic Salmon in the MD VA DC area is from 2 to 6 dollars more per pound. Because of the price difference, the supermarkets sell less of the wild caught and carry less wild caught than farmed raised. The health impact of Omega 3 can vary depending on the dietary intake of Omega 6 which mitigates the positive effects of Omega 3 dietary intake.. The less dietary Omega 3 intake the less Omega 3 intake is needed for the same positive health benefits.

I keep reading about higher concentrations of PCBs in farm raised fish. I’ve studied (as a hobby) environmental contamination. PCBs were used most commonly in power transformers and is in the process of being phased out if it isn’t already in the U.S. It was used in quite a few other industrial applications. I was stationed at Ft. Eustis, VA with the Army for 7 months. There was a lake contaminated with PCBs due to neglected storage of transformers that leaked and contaminated the lake. Last I knew it was still an issue. The fish grew two heads (literally). So my question is. Why are farm raised fish more likely to have higher PCB content than wild caught? Because I’m choosing not to eat local fish because of ag runoff in my area. State of Kansas has put out not to eat too much fish from our manmade lakes or rivers because of contamination. So I’m looking for a healthy choice for fish. Last I knew, tuna is overfished and isn’t easily harvested in farms for sustainability. Salmon is appealing because it can be farmed to help offset overfishing. I’ve read that tilapia is a dirty fish that has a lot of parasites. I’ve considered starting my own aquaponics but I’m not sure how do it and do it in a way that will maximize the health of the fish.

[@DrLivingood]

For fish, we recommend finding an option that is wild-caught. Farm-raised salmon have a higher fat content and more toxins that come from their diet. Here is a helpful article: drlivingood.pulse.ly/oecy71li48 🙂 - LGD Team

I dont like most fish anyway, and i have never liked salmon.

Farmed salmon can be done on land which dramatically reduced the environmental and health effects. Check out this business in Tasmania, Australia: "41° South Tasmania and Georgie's Cafe". These are done in large tanks that are linked to a nearby set of semi-wild ponds for filtering. In my opinion this method is better than both the wild caught and river/ocean farmed.

The Problem with such suggestions is, that we are 8 billion humans on earth and when all wanted to eat wild fish, ...we all know, that ther is a shortage of fish in the oceans anyway.....and not even all humans eat fish. So.... your suggestion, better only eat wild fish (not farmed fish) do not last long... and is not targetting the problem. You should criticize the main problem: that the farmed fish is fed with bad food. Sometimes even toxic at all. And that farmed fish also is highly medicated, because wild fish and farming (with bad food) doesn´t fit together. And also the enviormental consequences of big fish-farms are bad as fxyz There are two main targets out of all usual suggestions. One: We need more fish, so we need Fishfarming (so far it seems), but in a much better strategy (without toxins and strange ingrediens and lesser enviormental damage). Two: we need to make the oceans a better, cleaner (chemical and physical resulting in biological ideal) biotope. Idealy that resulted in a higher animal/life-population, so that there is more capacity to take out food for humans. The main target is, the growing-rate of all sorts of plants and animals in the ocean to drastical increase, so that the biotope is highly vital and a uge renewal-rate can/will happend. But with the actual pollution of the oceans that cannot work. We put our waste-water, our industry-waste and much more (chemicals out of washing-substances and cosmetics and much more) into rivers and oceans, that these biotopes cannot flourish anymore, as they could. At most the chemnical portions of our industry-culture are partly very bad. Hormonal active substances are bad for life... and its reproduction-capability. Chemical toxins, that seems to be not (so much) toxic for humans (what only seems so), can be very toxic for some animals and hole biotopes). Overall, we destroy our biggest biotopes by shitting in Rivers and oceans and pollut the rivers and oceans full of toxic substances. And... also the problem of nuclear waste. Its not the radiation, that is the problem, its the form, inwhat nuclear elements are existant: in single atoms (Ions), that are easy integratable in metabolizing organisms (what actualy do all organisms: metabolizing to life and grow) and can easily manipulate / damage their methabolism and nervesystem. Those element-forms are set free in all burning-processes (because all plants, fossil-fuels and energy-recources contain some of such isotopes in single atomar form). Not even spoken abput nuclear accidents...or intentionaly / willingly contamination because of manipulation of humans mind/brains and organism (to bring them in dependence of modern civilisational institutions, like medical service and even food- So, no good suggestion. Only smart alecking (do no tknow the right translation of "Klugscheisserei" or "Besserwisserei"....). The theory and pretendings free market economy of modern capitalism knew that problem, that the market cannot solve all that problems...only the problem with profit-making and economic groth. No one of the shareholder think about, how bad the actual product can be for consumer, its simpley only relevant, what is in it for profit. Ther is no sustainability in the actual economy, because its build to exploit and distroy the enviorment, out of what they make profit.
