[@biancat7761]

The best thing I learned from this doco was algae for omega 3! I feel like it's a great solution and I've advised everyone who takes omega 3 to get an algae based one! Very very happy they included it in the doco

[@biancat7761]

@Clarissa 1986 heya. Im pretty sure any omega 3 supplement can increase bleed time. That's why plastic surgeons or cosmetic places ask you to refrain from using fish/krill/omega supplements before surgery. Luckily I don't have diabetes and I don't mind paying a good price for quality algae oil. But what I found so far has been fairly cheap and comparible to omega 3 pills. Thanks for the tip on diabetes patients!

[@sineadfolan9473]

Clarissa1986 what article have you got that warns against algae oil and whom is it by and have you asked yourself who funded this report as many studies funded by different groups often have a vested interest in a certain result. However I must admit I do agree that in the long run it is better to get your nutrition through diet rather than supplements but you can actually consume algae and other seaweed / sea vegetable products. It's a very common in Japan and it's exactly where the fish get their omegas from. People have been using these products in one way or another for centuries. Also look at the benefits of Spirulina and Chlorella. Obviously anyone considering supplimentation needs to be very discerning about which one they choose. Some are far better than others with no fillers, chemical additives etc. Not everyone likes or wants to eat fish. Personally after alot if research have started taking an algae oil from a very reputable company while Iearn to incorporate sea plants into my diet going forward

[@sineadfolan9473]

Also important to note for anyone on any medication or underlying conditions who ate considering any supplements to do their research and discuss with their GP as many supplements and other medicines can interact with each other, not just in the case of algae oil. For example I take thyroid meds but have to wait at least an hour afterwards before having dairy products or taking iron supplements. Similarly iron supplements and dairy should not be taken at the same time. Unfortunately low iron count is something I suffer with regularly due to heavy periods so supplimentation is necessary

[@biancat7761]

@Clarissa 1986 I understand, but some people live far from the sea or are vegN/vegetarian so eating algae or fish isn't an option. If you do a simple google search you'll find omega 3 supplements cause blood thinning. Which means it's hard for your blood to clot. Humans have been consuming algae for thousands of years. So it's very safe to eat. The supplements have been around for over 5 years and I personally haven't heard anything super bad about it. I'm super happy that fish don't have to die for my supplements. It's unnecessary

[@biancat7761]

@Clarissa 1986 have you watched to doco? What were your thoughts on it? Having a supplement is a great alternative. And transporting frozen foods in some countries is impossible or too expensive. Vegans and vegetarians should be able to have access to supplements. If you don't personally like supplements that's ok. But they should be available. Yes algae is nutritious and good for you. It's been a staple food in Japan for millennia. Japanese people live a very very long time. So algae is safe The blood thinning is a non issue unless you about to have surgery. So you just stop taking any omega 3 supplements for two weeks. But even then it's not an issue if you have emergency surgery. That's what blood banks are for. 5 years is a long time. It's a very safe supplement.

[@michaelg8841]

[@nanp00p67]

Thing is, the documentary is not wrong at all. Rather they have put out a powerful message that we need to be listening to. Never did they say that other plastic was unimportant, but they did use their platform as a direct way to put pressure on these companies who as we have seen in the film and in their responses, are pretty much bureaucratic pirates. I don’t think we should be downplaying the message; which may not have been the intention here, but from my perspective the way this video is presented just seems a little too lighthearted for the subject matter. Otherwise, it is good to fact check sources and question the information provided, but given the extensive amount of reliable sources already given from the film, I’m not sure quoting NatGeo is exactly what we are looking for to help our skepticism, especially since they are one of the platforms serving the “plastic straw agenda”. Just look at their cover with the seahorse on the straw, heartbreaking but distracting. Btw, Seaspiracy works because its “sea’s piracy”

You're dead wrong, "deep sea fisherman", Robert Rangiuia, if you deny shark-finning is still occurring! Google quickly makes clear that the practice still exists in many countries whereby fish butchers mutilate live sharks, slicing off their fins for human consumption and then discarding the live but helpless amputated sharks back into the ocean, where, unable to swim, they die a slow death by suffocation. That cruel practice need to be ended!

You've talked about this already in videos like the criticism of industry-funded papers for the benefits of eggs.

Nutrition Made Simple Seaspiracy DEBUNKED in this comment. This is what happens when you read “science” in the title, but after all the video shows a talking bust giving HIS opinion most of the times AGAINST the documentary. While you base a few of your data arguments on some texts to debunk Seaspiracy, what you are really doing is to give your opinion regarding the “relevance” of the eating fish issue. Of course, eating fish has benefits, but this is not the point. We are talking about a huge problem of a global crisis (we are not only talking about our dietary benefits) and the point (that I guess you didn’t get) is the difficulty of raising public awareness on the climate emergency (sometimes you need to put things worse to make them realise). Videos like this one do everything BUT HELP; how relevant do you think it is to put the fishing as “one of the most” causes of plastic contamination, rather than “the most”, as the documentary explained? If you want to help the planet but also be the most accurate person in the world, go ahead, do this video, but don’t trivialise about the harmful fishing industry only because you don’t agree for personal reasons or because you feel guilty or not strong enough to stop eating animals.

What you forgot to consider about the sea turtles part was that though they tried to focus in on bycatch as the main factor, their hard evidence didn’t deny climate change as your fact check mentioned. Throughout the film, it repeatedly put emphasis on how much the oceans vegetation regulates carbon. It also made a point about how we are learning how marine life can help regulate temperature. So basically bycatch and overfishing was leading to destruction of marine vegetation which causes climate change and further affects animal populations. Since turtles eat sea vegetation, that could also be another reason why they are endangered, something also cause by overfishing or irresponsible fishing practices

The documentary meaning is not anti fishing but anti trawling and commercial plastic nets.It is better to eat local fresh food.For people living on coastal areas it is better to rely on fish bug not for those who are living inlanders

[@tannerw14]

That one guy being interviewed trying to give the analogy for suitable fishing by comparing it to a bank made absolutely no since. The only way that I could make sense of it was that if you start a fishing farm with X-amount of fish and relied completely off of the fish that were produced from those farms. But this interview happend before they introduced fish farms in the film.

[@Hufflestitcher87]

Thanks for this!! I watched it and just the bycatch and overfishing issues have me avoiding seafood but I did wonder how the science checked out.

I'll say that again: best nutrition channel on KZbin! I always look for unbiased nutrition information, and I this content is awesome. Two questions/suggestions for future videos: would you consider talking about (1) whether we need EPA/DHA supplements on a plant-based diet, or if we can stick to ALA sources such as flax seeds, and (2) how to get the right amount of iodine from algae? I personally get iodine from Dulse, but I'm always worried about using too much/too little seaweed, I'm not sure if I should get it every day, etc. Just a few ideas. Thank you for everything you do!

[@NutritionMadeSimple]

we touched on 1) in the miley cyrus/rogan video linked at the end of this one; usually a very small amount of dulse covers it (a quarter of a tsp or so), we'll look into salt and iodine in more detail soon :)

[@supercalix95]

@@NutritionMadeSimple Thank you Doc! As for EPA/DHA, I was personally interested in better understanding pros and cons of getting EPA/DHA supplements as opposed to only relying on ALA sources. From my (little) understanding, there are some concerns about the long-term use of EPA/DHA supplements, and some doctors do not recommend them. I am a little confused about the evidence in this area, and so I wonder what's the recommended way to ensure a reliable source of omega3 on a plant-based diet, and if ALA sources are sufficient.

Up here in Alaska a lot of small fishing families were pretty disappointed with the oversimplification of the industry. While of course they aren’t contributing very much to the growth of the ocean animals by fishing, they do participate in a responsible manner and are sure to follow the regulations set in place. It’s definitely interesting to hear their point of view on the issue

They also gave the information about omega3. Omega 3 originates from algae.

[@paddywan]

When it comes to the health part, you kind of nailed it when you said that it is not neccessary (for getting all nutrition needed) and when acounting for all externalities fish should be a no go. IThis issue goes so far beyond health and when it is not neccessary for health there is actually no compelling arguments. Also, if the oceans are being depleeted now, imagine if all people who eat meat switch to fish instead. Dead oceans for sure. I get that people are unwilling to go vegan but if we want a functioning planet thats is the most viable option.

[@Eternal_Soul1]

but no ones ever going to do that. Its the same argument for hunting. Not everyone is going to become a hunter. I mean tags and legal limits and other regulations aside depending on where you live. Ppl say well if everyone became a hunter, well thats not going to ever happen. The other thing is all the environmental impacts of vegetable/ fruit/ grain farming. Might wanna really look into that one.

[@paddywan]

@@tritter15 veganism uses way less water, energy, land etc. than any other type of food, so I don't quite follow your argument.

[@tritter15]

@@paddywan Veganism still engages in industries where people and land are exploited, slavery is rampant, wild lands are cleared for agriculture, and native plants and animals are threatened or endangered. And this isn’t even touching on its effects on indigenous communities around the world. A large portion of the Amazon is cleared for sugar, rice plantations are threatening the population of Asian elephants, and plantations for pineapples and sugar have been destroying Hawaii’s natural habitat. Like I said, veganism is a short-term solution for a system built on creating maximum profits from food.

10:14 The Question Dr. Greger was asked was a bit weird though: „What am I going to miss out on if I stopped eating seafood?“ It’s a bit weird because Dr. Greger can’t know what other things Ali eats. If the only thing Ali eats is fish and seafood, if he stopped eating it, he’s gonna miss out on essential amino acids, Essential fatty acids, and some minerals. If Ali is eating a balanced diet with minerals, essential amino acids, and he gets his essential fatty acids from seaweed/algae or another source he is only going to miss out on the pollutants. If the only thing he’s eating is fish he is going to miss out on the amino acids, fatty acids, and minerals in fish. Having written that, Dr. Greger DOES oversimplify, but to be fair the question was a bit hard to answer, and it seems as Dr. Greger takes advantage of that, to emphasize the bad things about fish, rather than the good things.

Fish get their omega 3 fatty acids from algae

[@JoshuaBurtthelegendarysaiyan]

Absolutely - and one thing he overlooks is the cost of fish oil/fish vs algae supplementation. Most people cannot afford to source 2g+ / day of epa/dha from algae supplements, and this dosage has been absolutely shown in numerous RCT studies and backed up by meta-analysis, to have significant impacts on risk factors to all-cause mortality. See doi.org/10.1038/s41467-021-22370-2 . I estimated that to reach these levels from algae supplements, an average American would need to spend close to $3000 a year just on supplementation, which is more than some people spend on their entire grocery bill. It's roughly 30% of that to achieve the same dosage (or similar) from fish oil (generally speaking).

[@LeanAndMean44]

@@JoshuaBurtthelegendarysaiyan wow, that’s actually very surprising since the omega-3‘s originally come from algae, and it should be cheaper to extract it from them, rather than extract it from a fish‘s liver (or wherever from). Thanks for the share!

Fisheries biologist / manager here. I manage small artisan fisheries, mostly invertebrate bivalve species. I agree with most of the content of this movie albeit it is dramatized for viewers. The global fishing industry is killing our oceans along with other threats such as climate change and ocean acidification. The only way to reduce overfishing and outrageous bycatches is by keeping fish off your plate. Unless you can access fish from very small, tightly managed tribal fisheries, don't buy them, don't eat them.
