Wild Seafood vs Farmed Seafood? What's Best?
Wild Seafood vs Farmed Seafood? What's Best? \\“It’s a common misconception that wild seafood is good and farm-raised is bad,” says Barton Seaver, director of the Healthy and Sustainable Food Program at the Center for Health and the Global Environment at the Harvard School of Public Health. “But globally, farm-raised seafood now accounts for about half of production and consumption. So aquaculture is here to stay. And it runs the gamut from environmentally just terrible to restorative. In some cases, it can even increase the health of the oceans that it is raised in.” best fish for your health For example, farm-raised clams, mussels, and oysters remove the excess nutrients that get into water systems from agricultural runoff and pollution. http://www.nutritionaction.com/daily/food-safety/should-we-avoid-all-farm-raised-seafood/?utm_source=WhatCountsEmail&utm_medium=Nutrition_Action_Daily_Tips+Nutrition%20Action%20Daily+Nutrition%20Action%20Daily&utm_campaign=2016.01.27%20Food%20Safety

The hype on contaminates is overhyped. You can get tests to see if your body tissues are contaminated. My family on Dad's side were fishermen, meat distributors, and restaurant owners in San Francisco. Mom's side were butchers. Grew up eating a ton of fish as it was free! My Doc was concerned. But we tested out my body tissues and they were fine. If you're concerned, check with your doctor.

Which seafood is best? NONE. It's all bad for you and comes out of the ocean (which is pretty much a toxic wasteland at this point) or farmed (they feed them their own feces and other nasty things). I wished all people knew this. We're killing this beautiful planet and all of it's beautiful creatures. Makes me so sad.

I used to eat a lot of seafood, but I got fat. I enjoyed Captain D's, the hushpuppies and fries on the side. It was good, but I had to give it up, it was getting out of hand.
