Guest guest Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 Does most salmon available to us in the states come from the " farm? " Is it even possible to obtain " natural " salmon which, based on what you're saying Dan, would be higher in Omega 3? Thanks.

Someone asked: " We try to eat salmon once a week as I know it's one of the healthy choices as far as fish. Tuna is also good, but higher in sodium. What other fish are good choices? " The potential problem with salmon is its source. Many farmed sources are given food which does not contain the omega3 oils which has the health benefit, aside from being a non-saturated fat source important to diabetics. It is the lower food chain a fish eats that produces the omega3 which the salmon and tuna higher on the chain consume. The sodium is added to the tuna and canned salmon so fresh sources are best. Sadly it also contains higher mercury levels because it also concentrates it from the lower parts of the food chain it uses. The larger the fish the more the mercury so salmon don't have this problem. Albacore tuna,ie. white, is highest because it is one of the larger varieties and the most expensive canned varieties. Yellow fin etc. varieties are smaller and in the lower priced cans. Here is a list of good fish choices in order of omega3 content, the first highest:: The American Heart Association recommends eating fish (particularly fatty fish) at least two times (two servings) a week. Each serving is 3.5 ounce cooked, or about a cup of flaked fish. Fatty fish like salmon, mackerel, herring, lake trout, sardines and albacore tuna are high in omega-3 fatty acids.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 Dean, Okay, for the benefit of us folks out here in the boonies what are kippers? Cy, The Anasazi Re: Healthy fish? four years ago I had a pacemaker put in. A year or so later saw an old friend who was into health food who had also had to have one put in. she suggested I eat sardines or kippers every day for lunch. she said they probably wouldn't let me eat them in our family owned furniture store because of the smell so I would probably have to eat them outside. I have not taken her suggestion, though. I do assume she knows what she is talking about. Dean Healthy fish? We try to eat salmon once a week as I know it's one of the healthy choices as far as fish. Tuna is also good, but higher in sodium. What other fish are good choices? Thanks.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 I had to look this up myself. It sounds more palatable than canned sardines, though. A kipper is a whole herring, a small, oily fish, that has been split from tail to head, gutted, salted or pickled, and cold smoked. they are found canned or bottled. Dean Healthy fish?

If you ask your shopping place, they might be able to get either for you or tell you where to get it. It can be found on amazon in cans.. I see at least one brand is salt free.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 Someone mentioned kippers and another described what they are. It is one of my most liked form of canned fish. It is delicious. Some lucky few live where it can be gotten whole and not canned. My local walmart has them along with another canned form of herring from canada called fish steaks or some such. Both come in 3.5 oz cans with flip lids. XB IC|XC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yellow fin etc. varieties are smaller and in the lower priced cans. Here is a list of good fish choices in order of omega3 content, the first highest:: The American Heart Association recommends eating fish (particularly fatty fish) at least two times (two servings) a week. Each serving is 3.5 ounce cooked, or about a cup of flaked fish. Fatty fish like salmon, mackerel, herring, lake trout, sardines and albacore tuna are high in omega-3 fatty acids.

Guest guest Posted March 27, 2011 Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 LOVE FRESH SAMOND. CAN BUY 4 OR MORE DIFFERENT TYPES OF FRESH SAMOND HERE AT SAM'S. GRILL IT FOR 5 MINUTES ON EACH SIDE AND BOY O BOY IS IT EVER SO GOOD! EVEN IN THE OVEN IT IS STILL GOOD. LIKE CAN SAMOND, BUT FRESH IS SO MUCH BETTER TO ME. BUT YOU CAN OVER COOK FRESH SAMOND, SO YOU GOT TO BE CAREFUL. Healthy fish? Someone asked: " We try to eat salmon once a week as I know it's one of the healthy choices as far as fish. Tuna is also good, but higher in sodium. What other fish are good choices? " The potential problem with salmon is its source. Many farmed sources are given food which does not contain the omega3 oils which has the health benefit, aside from being a non-saturated fat source important to diabetics. It is the lower food chain a fish eats that produces the omega3 which the salmon and tuna higher on the chain consume. The sodium is added to the tuna and canned salmon so fresh sources are best. Sadly it also contains higher mercury levels because it also concentrates it from the lower parts of the food chain it uses. The larger the fish the more the mercury so salmon don't have this problem. Albacore tuna,ie. white, is highest because it is one of the larger varieties and the most expensive canned varieties. Yellow fin etc. varieties are smaller and in the lower priced cans.
