Ep 520 Warriors be weary, Junk fish in junk out. Farmed fish

When the Environmental Working Group (EWG) tested  farmed salmon from U.S. grocery stores, they found  farmed salmon had, on average:20Show more

16 times more PCBs than wild salmon
4 times more PCBs than beef
3.4 times more PCBs than other seafood
Farmed fish are directly being fed plastics, which can impact their health and nutritional value. 

You see, my fellow warriors, farmed fish may seem like the convenient, eco-friendly option, but there's a dark side lurking in those crowded pens. Pesticides, antibiotics, and toxic chemicals swirl around these captive fish like a menacing undertow, threatening not only their health but potentially ours as well.
The video discusses the potential health risks of consuming farm-raised fish, and recommends wild-caught fish as a healthier alternative.

Dr. Ron argues that farm-raised fish are inferior to wild-caught fish in several ways:

Nutrient deficiencies: Farm-raised fish tend to be lower in omega-3 fatty acids and other nutrients compared to wild-caught fish.
Higher levels of toxins: Farm-raised fish may contain higher levels of pesticides, antibiotics, and microplastics due to the crowded and often unsanitary conditions in which they are raised.
Environmental impact: Fish farms can contribute to pollution and the spread of disease in the surrounding water.
Dr. Ron recommends consuming wild-caught fish, such as salmon, sardines, mackerel, and herring, as a healthier alternative to farm-raised fish. He also suggests grass-fed beef as a good source of protein.
