Guest guest Posted August 28, 2002 Report Share Posted August 28, 2002 Canned Salmon!? Yuckkkk! (very scientific response, don't you think?). Please tell us that lox and or a nice grilled piece of fresh Alaskan Salmon with a touch of coconut and teriyaki will do the trick. Here is a brief overview of Jo's concern with Xenoestrogens. http://www.quackbusters.com.au/chronicles/xenoestrogens.htm Dave Noel ----- Original Message ----- From: Francesca Skelton support group Sent: Wednesday, August 28, 2002 9:02 AM Subject: [ ] canned salmon Jo: It has nothing to do with price. Canned salmon has a couple ofexcellent qualities:1. Most canned salmon is of the superior Wild Alaskan variety (contains themost Omega 3's) whereas much of the fresh salmon is not.2. It contains chewable soft bones full of valuable minerals.I would limit the amount of smoked salmon you ingest, since smoking meat orfish exposes you to carcinogens.

Guest guest Posted August 28, 2002 Report Share Posted August 28, 2002 Thanks Dave. BTW, I agree that the taste of fresh salmon is superior. However my husband prefers the canned - so there's no accounting for people's tastes :-) Anyway I went to the site on xenoestrogens. It links the culprit to plastics, not cans. So where's the connection? on 8/28/2002 11:14 AM, Dave Noel at davenoel@... wrote: > Canned Salmon!? Yuckkkk! (very scientific response, don't you think?).

Guest guest Posted August 28, 2002 Report Share Posted August 28, 2002 Au contraire! I eat canned salmon regularly and it is quite tasty with no preparation other than draining. Chicken of the Sea sells it in 3 packs of 3 oz. cans which is just right for an individual serving. For those of us that live a hopeless distance from any coast, this is one of the only ways to get cold water seafood without it being a budget buster. Now picture Jim Carrey with a green face: yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeYUMMY! ----- Original Message ----- From: Dave Noel Sent: Wednesday, August 28, 2002 10:14 AM Subject: Re: [ ] canned salmon Canned Salmon!?

Guest guest Posted August 28, 2002 Report Share Posted August 28, 2002 Apparently the concern regarding xenoestrogens relates to the plastic lacquer coatings used in food cans. Also just a reminder that Salmon and many other fatty fish hold other risks related to heavy metals and toxins. Alaskan salmon is actually one of the least risky with regard to these elements. Salmon from the Northwest US on the contrary are often loaded with toxins. I am not sure about Norwegian Salmon...I'll have to research that one. Have a great day...and lox of fun!
