Nutrition Tier Lists: Seafood

[@Talon_Fitness]

For anything that doesn't make sense, there's always a chance I made a mistake (I did in this video) so always check the description because that is where I will make corrections.

One comment on salmon: the nutritional info you got is probably based on wild-caught salmon. However, a lot of salmon (especially the more-affordable stuff) is farmed these days. The nutritional profile of farmed salmon will depend heavily on what they're fed (which may vary from place to place) and feed may also introduce contaminants not present in wild fish.

I know you mention them in multiple videos (eg fruits, vegetables, legumes), but I think there's a level of nuance to anti-nutrients, their sources and interactions (eg mitigating their effects with cooking, combining with vitamin C, etc) that I think deserves it's own dedicated video.

Fantastic list! Personally I eat a lot of sardines and anchovies and I would like to add an important note about them and potentially other seafood that my doctor warned me about: They significantly raise Uric Acid levels when consumed regularly and can cause inflammation issues as well kidney problems... Consumption of those seafood should be kept in check and would be best to monitor Uric Acid levels via occasional blood sample checkups. I definitely changed my consumption rate of those after I learned that, especially as a person sho suffers from a genetic gout disease. Love the videos, keep them coming!

Avocado oil is supposedly pretty good too from what I've heard. Seed Oils have people freaking out but they really aren't that bad, or that great for you. Peanut oil will be lower due to having some saturated fats and other unwanted things, such as allergies. Avoid eating butter and other animal fats tbh, it's all Saturated as opposed to primarily Poly and Monounsaturated in other things.

[@retrosoul8770]

@@AlexDenton0451 saturated fats from nature are not harmful at all, butter, ghee and coconut oil are the safest to cook with because saturated fats resist harmful oxidation that occurs through heat exposure, unlike unsaturated fats.

Agreed, I was hoping to see walleye ranked on this list, as well as a few others. For instance, I've read that mackerel can vary widely in mercury content depending on where it is caught. Perhaps regional variations of particular fish could be considered for part 2. also, I've been looking around for evidence of sardines being high in omega-6 after watching this and I really haven't come across anything making the same claim other than sardines packed in soybean oil may offset the benefit of the omega-3s in the sardines themselves.. hmm.

You also may want to go into environmental sustainability as well.

[@bradhombre6912]

Good info and good presentation, overall. It would be good to see information on PCB, PFOS and microplastics contamination as well as mercury, though it may be harder to find good data. I have generally seen that farm raised salmon may be high in PCBs, so I go for wild salmon. Also, I am a bit more leery of mercury, so swordfish would be a no go (f tier) for me. Similarly, while mackerel is low in mercury, king mackerel is very high, so it’s easy to get tripped up by things like that. One other small thing: though anchovies are great, they tend to be prepared with lots of salt which might be an issue for those trying to cut back on salt. Just some minor feedback. Thanks for putting together these helpful videos.

[@vitaspieler469]

Great tier list, amazing work! My biggest gripe is yellowtail, tuna, and swordfish should all be knocked down a peg from where they are due to their high mercury content, the effects of which cannot be understated and should automatically disqualify yellowtail from S-tier.

[@MKisFeelinSpicy]

I think the lists aren't necessarily focused on healthy food so much as whole singular foods/ingredients. Processed food like fast food would be hard to do a tier list for, because they vary so much by how they're processed and what ingredients are included. When we say "french fries", are we talking about baked, fried in peanut oil, smothered in cheese, or what? They could all be pretty different. Even if you mean to refer to a single restaurant's menu vs. another restaurant's menu, many places have both healthier items and unhealthy items, so it'd be hard to make a comparison without limiting it to a single item on the menu across restaurants (like french fries).

[@matejtrnovec9144]

@@MKisFeelinSpicy I understand but the idea of showing people what they eat, even if it is relative, is the main thing. In the video about meat for example, there is quite big difference between domestic chicken for example and the chicken from factory. It is rough estimate of nutrients but they are ofc relative. I understand that in the topic of fast food that relativeness is higher, but message and needed information even with some innacuracy due to relativeness of data, is by my opinion much more important than scientific exactness on KZbin Channel that tries to popularize awareness about nutrients in food

Don't forget about n-3 DPA 22:5n-3 docosapentaenoic acid. This is an important omega 3. Also keep in mind about bottom feeder fish, such as catfish, containing harsh substrates or chemicals from polluted waters. I'd also like to add that since tilapia live in such close quarters and tend to eat their own feces. They are typically not the best option. Several studies show these fish have a higher level of trans fat and AA. Oh, and arsenic is a common issue in many canned/tinned fish. Where mercury is low arsenic is often high.

[@gg-gn3re]

ALA and EPA are converted to DHA in the body (though very poorly) the only thing that produces DHA is Algae, all of the fish that have this get it from algae or get it from eating something else that got it from algae. DHA is currently seen as by far the most important, and found in equal amounts as DPA in breast milk. DPA is possibly better absorbed by humans (no studies confirm, they speculate and mention it, but it isn't concrete) and DPA also gets found in some other mammals which makes it more available similar to ALA (in seeds) DPA will be found in the same fish with DHA so that's good for all of his list. All in all, algae needs to be cultivated by humans because it's important and most people don't get enough omegas. As far as I see EPA -> DPA -> DHA so the main benefit of DPA is it may get absorbed far easier, and then converted.

[@londonmm]

@@gg-gn3re EPA is equally as important as DHA in the scientific community. They have synergistic roles and support different functions.

@@gg-gn3re DHS was a typo and was corrected below. DHA and EPA are equally important. I am a Ph.D. in Nutritional Science and study the realm of n-3 PUFA in particular the resolution of inflammation.

[@maxcooks2963]

Love these videos! Quick question: are there any discrepancies between the nutritional content in canned vs fresh seafood? For example, canned salmon and tuna?

[@technopong]

Agreed, that distinction seems like an important one to explore.

[@Darkia004]

I feel like for the protein, you should maybe mention the protein per calorie (leanness) of the food item. Its really important for a lot of people that work out. Thanks :)

[@ironsotg9490]

he has the fat shown in grams per 100 on screen too, so you should have the info you need imo

[@roastinred]

@@ironsotg9490 he's saying per calorie. Grams don't matter, calories do.

[@ironsotg9490]

@@roastinred all the foods had their nutritional values on the top left numbered per 100g of the food. So there's all you need to use calories or grams as your quantifier

[@roastinred]

@@ironsotg9490 you don't get it do you, it would make it easier to add this listing rather than have to calculate it individually. Further, Im not sure why he would focus on per 100g when meats can vary wildly for calories. Compare shrimp to steak for example. More fair to compare on a calorie basis.

[@bobjohnson1633]

Are you fucking kidding me? Fats are 9 calories per gram, alcohol is 7, protein is 4, and carbs are 4. If you have 25grams of protein from 100 grams of fish, that's 100 calories from protein. If you have 75 grams of fat in 100 grams of fish, you have nearly 700 calories from fat, giving a total of 800 calories in 100 grams. It says this in the packaging of basically all good

[@lindamcneil711]

I fell asleep watching this video…while the video was GREAT information, I did dream pretty heavily of squids and octopi. Now I am back to catch what I missed. All of these videos have been amazing. Thank you.

[@HarrieHardcore]

You could make a tier list on -nuts - different type of rices/ pastas - meals in general - breads - salt and its effects Dont know if it helps you, but having these lists would certainly help me. Thanks for your videos!

[@smurfaccount2162]

You didn't cover hardly any sort of "game" fish here. Other than the Bass everything on this list is commercially farmed or fished. Maybe make a whole seperate video on a tier list of wild foods, like wild berries and herbs and wild game meat and fish. That would be super cool.

[@wingracer1614]

Maybe for you, where I'm at, mackerel, grouper, catfish, swordfish are all pretty common. Would be nice to see some others from around here like mullet and sheepshead though

[@lillegitimate]

This video made my autism go sicko mode in the best way. Please keep making videos like this, they fuel my existence.

[@preston5747]

I overall agree with the list, just remember when you are fishing to keep in mind the water quality of the area, especially for freshwater fish

[@robmanz5744]

Love this format, always really informative and well explained

[@FirstStepTravelers]

Great video! Was curious about canned fish, does that effect anything?

[@leadfaun]

Yes. If you get sardines in oil, they have a worse ratio of Omega 6-3.

[@HealthmaxxingGermany]

@@leadfaun sardines in seed oil* especially

[@collopyj]

Would love to see a list like this covering fats or carbohydrates!

[@bobjohnson1633]

Most carbs are bad for you. Fats from animals are good for you. There you go. Extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, and coconut oil are the only plentiful and healthy replacements for animal fats. For carb sources, there is the amount of sugar per serving, then there is the amount of water and fiber which negates the health effects of the sugar. Water and fiber reduce the speed that you digest it, which is better. Juice is equal to a can of coke. Whole potatoes are hard to digest. Mashed potatoes, are easy to digest. Green vegetables are very low in calories, but very high in toxins to prevent animals from eating them. If you are 50% of your calories in spinach or broccoli for 1 month, you die from poisoning. Less sugar is better. More fiber is better. Less vegetables is also better. Seed oils, or anything high in linoleic acid is poison you should never ever eat.

[@Novehx]

@@bobjohnson1633 this is such a poor explanation. Just no man. Most carbs are not “bad” for you.

[@jimmymccarthy01]

A mushroom tier list would be interesting

[@erikasell4659]

Fascinating video and while I recognize that this is probably not the space for it, most fisheries are at unsustainable levels and if you care about that you should avoid the larger, carnivorous species in particular. Doing this also comes with the added advantage of eliminating much of the heavy metal consumption.

[@joeyfive5245]

The suspense was high leading up to Tunas placement, thank the Lord and the list maker that it ended up in the A tier

[@mattmorrissey6248]

One question I have is during the oyster segment you seemed to be referring to raw oysters but towards the beginning off the video you said you were measuring the cooked version, so what were the micros given for

[@Mogar1337]

These videos are great! It would be awesome if you could compile this information into a diet format that can be scaled up or down based on caloric needs. There is so much diet advice out there, knowing how to "optimize" that knowledge into one well rounded diet would be excellent.
