Both farmed-raised fish and wild-caught fish have pros and cons. The key is to weigh the positives and negatives and make educated choices that you can live with and line up with your health needs and values. Read More: 13 Types of Fish to Avoid. Wild-Caught Fish.The wild catfish has a little more protein and the farmed has a few more calories, but all in all, either fish is a healthy choice.
In the case of salmon, raw Atlantic farmed salmon has quite a bit more polyunsaturated fats, including a little eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) than raw wild salmon. It also has a few more calories.Wild-caught fish can sometimes be harder to find and is usually more expensive.
Unknown Environment: Their environment cannot be controlled, so there is an element of the unknown regarding potential toxins in the fish. Why Farm-Raised Fish vs. Wild Caught Fish Matters. The environment is contaminated from fish farms yet overfishing and.Wild-caught fish, on the other hand, is usually leaner with less fat.
MYTH: Farmed fish isn’t healthy. Fish is a very nutritious source of food — farmed or wild-caught.At this time, there is no simple answer to the wild vs. farmed fish question.
It depends on many variables ranging from the particular type of fish you want to the type of fishing gear used. Further, the answer will change over time as some fish stocks replenish, fishing equipment is re-designed to catch fish with less damage, and our data about fish populations get better.The nutritional differences between wild and farmed fish are not as great as you might imagine.
Farmed and wild-caught rainbow trout, for example, are almost identical in terms of calories, protein, and most nutrients. There are some minor differences: Wild-caught trout.The answer is both—there are pros and cons to each. While we might refer to them collectively as fish or seafood, multiple species, including crustaceans (shrimp) and bivalves (oysters, mussels, clams and scallops), can be considered either wild-caught or farm-raised.
On one side, farmed fish helps meet the demand for fish at a lower cost than fresh-caught fish, while also preventing the destruction caused by commercial fishing. Wild-caught fish typically offer better nutritional value, but commercial fishing has already damaged the world’s ocean ecosystems to staggering levels. Benefits of Farm-Raised Fish.The difference between farm-raised fish and wild-caught fish is simple, says Camire, who is also the president at the Institute of Food Technologists.
Farm-raised fish are grown in pens that are.Simply put, wild-caught seafood is caught from a natural habitat (lake, ocean, river) whereas farmed seafood is raised in large tanks. In the store or on your plate, the two could look the same, but are not promised to be equivalent. Nutrition: The nutrition quality of the seafood largely depends on what the fish eats.Farmed fish are often cheaper than wild-caught ones because they cost less to harvest, process, and ship.
Sustainability is a selling point. More customers are looking for sustainable and eco-friendly options when going out to eat. By using farm-raised fish in your business, you can capitalize on that interest and bring in more customers.Another concern is that farmed fish aren’t always nutritionally equivalent to wild-caught fish—especially when it comes to the amount of long-chain omega-3 fatty acids they contain. Like us, fish are what they eat.
And what farm-raised fish are fed really determines their nutritional content.Wild salmon is caught in natural environments such as oceans, rivers and lakes. But half of the salmon sold worldwide comes from fish farms, which use a.Think sardines, anchovies, herring and shellfish.
Larger fish like swordfish, for example, may have a lot of mercury in their blood, and farmed fish may have lower instances of mercury than wild-caught fish. Farmed fish that are raised in the ocean generally have the same amount of mercury in their systems as their free-roaming counterparts.Both farm-raised and wild-caught fish are low in saturated fat and high in omega-3 fats (“good” fats), but many often believe that wild-caught fish is healthier than farm raised because it comes from a natural source.
In reality, there isn’t much of a difference in the nutritional content of farm-raised and wild-caught fish.

Hello doc. I wish to ask you how man should go keto if he has acute or chronic pancreatitis!? Thank you!
Never eat farm raised. It’s extremely dangerous if the fish comes from outside the United States.
Hey! I’m Nicole.I did -45 lbs past 2 weeks.Go to hawght.so\#1o3H
I used to live in Western Alaska and fell in love with Salmon, especially dried and smoked Salmon. I live in the Midwest now and have developed a desire to try to recreate that smoked, chewy, and fatty experience…I believe Alder was used. I recently purchased two ORCA brand frozen wild caught Alaskan Sockeye fillets with the skin-on at two different supermarkets. From the packaging it looks like the Salmon was caught out around Dutch Harbor or Adak. After thawing, the fillets had a slight fishy smell to them…is that OK and normal?
Wild caught fish is expensive but worth farm raised fish is manipulated and they put dies and coloring some of the farm raised fish is GMO like tilapia fish man made fish out of China that’s why it’s so cheap
Doctor, Chiropractor or quack this guy is spot on. Picture at the end….. far right piece of salmon is NOT sockeye (not burgundy enuff to be sockeye) so there for not misleading, Chinese fisheries are not regulated, your eating Melamine every time you eat it if its imported. Farm raised fish is fed color enhancers for a better color, Says it right on the styrofoam case it comes in. Lord knows whats in that stuff!!!!
i wanted to comment on this. It quite a simple principle you are what you eat. The fish are what they eat. The fish farms feed like heaps of corn feed, 24/7! How can it be healthy? Do your self a favor, grow your own its easy. Check out Aquaponics. It teaches you to farm your own fish, its easy. Feed them a VARIED diet, start a worm farm, feed them worms, bugs from your garden, feed them your own made kitchen scrap foods.
Lmao saw the title and was about to go off in the comments before I watched it
@Kristipify I feel it is a good thing ” Vivian Krause’ is in to research. Look for her interviews on Youtube. American foundations have payed over $90 million to promote so called wild Alaskan over farmed. Why didn’t these foundations put any money to enviromental action in the Gulf of Mexico, on the eastren seaboard or the Alaskan coast? Watch and come back and tell us how accurate this video is.
Brilliant video and confirms everything that has been said from other sources about wild salmon, but it is really worrying the numbers of wild salmon has dropped and from other sources may go extinct sooner rather than later,
Is it Pure Alaska Salmon you are looking for? Alaska Seafood Processing creates dead zonesSeptember 28, 2011Trident Seafoods Corp. to Pay $2.5 Million to Resolve Clean Water Act Violations and Spend More Than $30 Million to Upgrade Processing PlantsSettlement to reduce discharges of seafood…
So you should consume radioactive wild caught Pacific Ocean fish instead? Because that the only other option. I haven’t seen any wild Atlantic fish for sale in California.
No farmed fish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have lived in Alaska for 4 years now and we can’t even find farmed salmon, and I wouldn’t want to. Also, I have heard that farmed salmon have been released into the Atlantic and can be sold as “wild Atlantic salmon” when in fact, they’re wild descendants of farmed raised ones.
What about these companies that sell wild Alaskan salmon online? For example, see bear wild Alaskan salmon. They say that it’s caught from Alaska then it’s flash frozen then they smoke it and package it and send it out to your home.
I eat wild salmon. Way better than farmed (fake) salmon. I’d never eat farmed garbage
im able to get cold smoked wild salmon in denmark and i was suprised how much less fat it has compared to the other pinkish/farmed salmon, i guess its not the quantity but the quality of the fat!
Darn…this could have been good. First of all, the picture at the end showing wild salmon is a bit misleading considering that was likely sockeye salmon and the other species are not quite as red. While I am still not an advocate for farmed fish, I wish this was cleaned up a bit.
Damn! i’m bout to throw up and throw this salmon away! i was bout to cook it guess i’ll eat some pumpkinseed tonight.
Ps: No such thing as Alaskan Sokeye. Sokeye are from Asia, they’re just migratory (response to pic)
That lady was crazy lol. Wild Salmon is Amazing. I avoid wild caught Salmon tho, as well as Bluefin due to the populations are endangered
I have to agree with the woman, I don’t like the taste of sockeye salmon either. It has a metallic taste to it and is much less flavorful than farm raised IMHO. I still eat the sockeye because of the benefits, I just don’t enjoy it as much as I did the farm raised salmon. And yes, I have been buying “fresh” at trader joes.
The Jeremy Clarkson of fish. Intelligent people agree on some points of his argument. And will definitely call BS on others. Wild caught is best, yes. But there are arguments to be made about pesticides being fed to farmed salmon. Perhaps overspray from crop dusting on a nearby field?
I am a fish farmer, iIam 100% sure that you are wrong, the omega3 or 6 contained in the fish body mostly depends on the species not on the environment the fish lives in.
Ok you’re right but Fukushima leaked radiation in the Pacific Ocean. Even California is getting Japanese debris washed up on their shores. Do we really want to eat Pacific wild caught salmon?
I’m moving to either Portland or Seattle. Should I start including fresh wild caught salmon? Is it really that good like everyone says?
When you consume “Wild” Salmon you are literally eating Bears, Otters, Beavers, Fox, Wolfs, Weasels, Orca, Seals, Insects along with new generations of Salmon, Steelhead. These fish were meant to spawn in upland coastal tributaries where their nutrients contribute to the flora and fauna of a healthy ecosystem. When you eat “wild” Salmon you disrupt an entire ecosystem. Salmon protein is processed through you to sewage treatment and landfills instead of the coastal ecosystem. AromaThymeBistro, whatever that is, doesn’t have Bambi on the menu. Thats not considered appropriate by our society because if we did there wouldn’t be a wild deer left on the planet. Why do they condition us to eat “wild” salmon? Why do you listen? If you don’t want to eat farmed Salmon that’s not an excuse to eat “wild”!!! He also doesn’t have another fact straight. A percentage of all wild salmon meat is white. Look it up. Some folks think it has better flavor. I can’t differentiate by taste.
What do you think about OCEAN FARMED fish? Thanks for all your great info!
You can get used to eating sh!t too if that is all you are fed.
Wrong color? Lmao WHAT people are used to sashimi salmon. That’s orange. And not that deep pink/red. Sad.
Farmed salmon in not healthy because they give them pesticides Why? Because their crowed into the pond thousands and thousands of fish. they develop diseases a lot quckier they also have sea lice to avoid that put a lot of pesticides into the pond which the fish in the pond get saturated with pesticides which goes into thei meat which means that your basically eat pesticides. And the color of the sea salmon is the true color not the farmed. The reason being because the sea salmon eat other fish smaller ones which gives them the nutrients they need to survive it gives them their true color
Mackerel/Cod is just as good as Wild salmon. Visit your local supermarket or Butcher freezers.
I miss living in Wenatchee. I would wake up at 5 and go fishing, catch a King or a Sockeye and bring it straight home and grill it. But I used applewood chips from an orchard I worked on.
Were fukked either way. Pcb is in everything especially wild caught. Mercury is in wildbcaught for sure
White Salmon is not albino. Please check you facts. Certain rivers have a high percentage of white salmon. There is a Whit Salmon River in OR. The Kalum River in BC Canada has has about thirty to forty percent White Salmon. This guy has an agenda and I’ll bet it’s bought and paid for by the Commercial fishing industry. Don’t believe anything he has to say.
Good luck with “wild” fish, it’s now a variety, not really wild. In Canada its not permitted to catch wild salmon. Plus if you live anywhere in the middle of NA, it’s all farmed or frozen.
I hope you one day come to iceland it is the nicest country in the world.
Best wishes Gyđa from Iceland
When buying wild salmon you really do notice the difference in quality looks healthier and taste better
In a documentary I watched they mentioned that salmon is worst than pork ��
HELLO, HELLO, HELLO!
ARE YOU GOING TO SHOW ANYTHING, AND SAME TIME CAN TALK, TALKING ABOUT IT….?
I watched a whole documentary about the salmon farms disrupting wild salmon migration routes by infecting the salmon as they pass. It’s sad the big corporations only look for the mighty dollar and not the well being of entire ecosystems and human life!!!!
The information from Marcus’s video and other documentaries I have watched has led me to stop eating all farmed fish.. especially salmon. When I buy salmon from now on I will only buy the wild caughtregardless that it will be available only seasonally and I will have to pay more.
What lies she tells check out some of the health risks of eating farmed “paid faker” sorry I spelt that wrong!
Wild salmon has always And will always look and taste better than Farm raised. Thats because she’s just too used to eating CHEAP SALMON, lol. Its ruined her taste buds. #WILDSALMON
you have to note at the end. they flash freeze it it kills most parasite so its safe to eat it raw
Since fish farming is profitable, green racketeers are trying to get a piece of the action. Green activists scream like little children, and then buy fish at the supermarket and invites their loved ones to sushi. Hypocrites.
The sockeye that we get here on the East coast does not have a drop of oil in it (dry as a bone). ; I believe these are harvested after they have spawned and are spent fish; Mackerel, bluefish and herring, for me
I think a fisherman should be making these videos. Not some chad restaurant owner in a suit and tie
I bought fresh fish from whole foods many times and I can tell it is so old. Frozen is the way to go.
The only 2 farmed fish you should EVER eat is Trout and Catfish. Furthermore, if you eat Catfish, eat fillets, don’t eat nuggets! Catfish nuggets are the belly meat, which is where the toxins soak into.
I have noticed for the last year that the salmon I have purchased at Whole Foods doesn’t look right, and it doesn’t feel right. It has a lot of tough, fibrous-like texture that isn’t normal. It is lighter in color and has a lot of white layers. After watching documentaries about fish and fish farming around the world, etc. I have decided not to eat salmon and many other fish, especially from the Pacific, anymore. And I will not buy or eat any Pacific fish at all, wild or farmed.
i dont understand how people can be so ignorant, and yet so opinionated. what do you think they feed the fish in fish farms? organic algae? they feed them the cheapest food possible. stupid consumers want perfectly colored fish, so they add dye to the meat. why is this so difficult for people to understand. even if he’s a chiropractor, he is still educated enough to say what he’s saying. what he is saying is correct, and true. but do whatever you want!, by all means.
I tell people all the time dont eat pork cat fish talapia at all and cut back on the red meat….they look at me like im stupid
Message to Andy… i would like to see… a portable grill with wheels attached to “Cinco ceunte” your amazing tiny little car.. then grill and cook on the streets or public parks…and later feed the homeless… or atleast people around you.. you have an awesome personality and lots of humor you will do great in open and in public places and bring people together….
This is no doubt quality content but I really miss vlog Andy bring him back
LOOKS LIKE THE YOU ONLY SET IN THE CAR, WHERE’S YOUR FISH’S……
YEAH, MY GRANDPARENTS, FAMILIES WAS IN THE CO.,AND Washington, and the Alaska, so on, and on.?
The problem is the American education that impairs people’s critical thinking skill. The common core education system is the mind control system to dumb down the people so that they keep spending money for the big government and corporations. It is a abomination of classical education.
Guess what lady your perception of Simon is all wrong! April Fools��
Fresh wild salmon is absolutley one of the most beautiful pink orange colors with a clean glass shine. Amazing
Keep eating the farmed stuff. I need more room on this earth
Andy dude you’re doing great with the cooking videos. I do have one tip though. Use more camera angles kind of like you did in your vlog. Watch the channel “sous veid everything” to see what I’m talking about
I fished wild salmon this past season in Kodiak AK on a 58′ seiner. My captain of course would be all about how wild is better but I tend to agree with you that farmed is the better option becasuse its less dangerous to obtain and less expensive with just as good quality. Go Norway and Iceland!
let people keep eating farmed salmon. if the demand for wild salmon goes up, prices will go up!!!!
Any salmon with Atlantic on it, I haven’t touched in years. I’ve tried to speak to a few of the stores I shop at but they still sell tons of that garbage. Any large fatty farmed fish (salmon, tuna, etc.) have concentrations of unbelievable toxins. Don’t touch it!
I take it back make a cheese steak sandwich bell peppers & onion must have!÷ ��
Your comparing atlantic salmon vs sockeye. Different breeds of salmon u tard. Sockeye is more red due to its fish diet. Compare the same type of salmon wild vs farmed. I catch wild ivory king salmon all the time here in sacramento. At least 1/4 fish have white flesh. Depending on what they eat, our fish will be either red or orange or ivory.
That is correct. Sockeye Alaskan salmon, caught in streams have the rich dark red color that salmon is supposed to have. Farmed salmon are fed with pellets with cheap vegetable oil as preservatives in them as well as pesticides which are toxic. That salmon is a lot cheaper hence the reason why. There are a million reasons why you should not eat farmed salmon. Real salmon are carnivorous, they eat other fish. They’re not supposed to eat dried out pallets.
ok what farm paid you to make this video. Wild Salmon is mostly more healthier farm raised 3 letters PCB
I know the Wild Salmon is healthier but i prefer the taste of the farmed. It’s more fatty & oily than wild caught & has a better taste. I eat both but my family prefers farmed.
What about the Third Party Certified Sustainably farmed fish? They have standards for the omega 6/omega 3 numbers. Not sure about what they actually feed the fish.
I just tried some wild caught Sockeye and I understand why this woman didn’t like it. It has only a fraction of the fat of the farmed Atlantic and is tougher and fishier tasting.
Honestly, I’m going back to farm raised salmon. It’s much cheaper, and tastier…and I can’t confirm this but some say in the last few years fisheries have gotten better with regard to the level of toxins….now the biggest issue is the sea lice populations that the farms are causing to explode.
I want to see old AAAANNNNNDDDDYYYYY for a change to. New Andy is not crazy enough for me!
Chris from Missouri
Are the Salmon caught out of Lake Michigan considered wild salmon?
to be honest i couldn’t effort salmon in the 60s but loved it whenever I could effort it I always believed that was food from Heaven then bought some as it was a lot cheaper than it should the colour was a sick pinkish touching it didn’t feel oily eating it was the only time i eaten farmed salmon then saw some wild Alaskan salmon in Morrisons supermarket bought some n heavenly taste I do Not marinate wild Alaskan salmon Not even salt n pepper just fried in olive oil i can eat that everyday If I could effort it but once in a while is a special treat
I’ve been eating salmon sashimi in Japan and it looked exactly as ‘farmed’ example, I bet it was 100% wild, cuz it’s Japan. This looks more like Mr. Guiliano’s restaurant ad. also I’ve been eating Norwegian farmed salmon for 8 years, never been sick, never had a diarrhea, and taste was fine.
Hi Dr. Berg. Do you have the link for the PCBs? I don’t see it below, but I’d like to check it out. Thanks so much!
We used to go straight out into the Gulf and catch our fish and grill it right there on the boat. Nothing fresher! We’d shuck the oysters right when they came out of the water.
DO NOT BUY OR EAT OR FEED TO YOUR PETS ANY “ATLANTIC” SALMON. PERIOD!!! It is really that simple. If it comes from the Atlantic it is a toxic cesspool of disease & the consumer literally at their peril is choosing to ingest “THE MOST TOXIC FRANKEN FOOD IN THE WORLD”. If you knew the facts & the whole truth about farm raised Salmon it would blow your mind!!! It did mine!!!
Very few places we can get wild salmon now, I think I usually eat farmed salmon, will check market out
Go watch this Italian movie-type thing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZyWnYS95qQ&t=181s. You may enjoy it!
Very informing clip Thank you Marcus I have lost many of my friends to cancer and more we know the better people like you expose the truth!
Without a doubt. I would rather pay $14/lb (sometime on sale at $12/lb) for fresh Alaska Sockeye salmon (has a wonderful sweet, lobster-like smell) than $6/lb farm-raised salmon, at my local HEB.
These portions are from two completely different species…that is why they look different in color.
I never knew farmed Salmon was this bad. I do now. I hope I haven’t done too much damage to myself. I thought it was reasonably healthy because feeding was “controlled”. Controlled alright…..controlled to be cheap and toxic. That should be a crime.
They add food coloring. Farm raised salmon is raised in large ponds that over-crowded and full of diseased fish. Then they add tons of anti-biotics and herbicides that would not be allowed in any farmer’s field. Then the feed also contains way too much fatty products.
In my country there is no wild caught salmon for example, that’s why I have to go with other types of fish.
Thanks for sharing hope you are well God loves you deeply shalom
Tilapia is the worst. Vegan fish that’s naturally very low in nutrients
I’ve seen the different colors in the same wild species of salmon and trout in different populations
Happy you are conscientious of the source of your ingredients something very close to my heart!! Great food centered in respect and love!!! Go Andy!!
Okay. Why not have a Part II video explaining the dangers of wild caught fish? Just as supposedly toxic. We’ve been eating canned tuna, farm-raised fish, farm-raised steak, farm-raised eggs, drinking farm-produced milk. Consuming farm-raised fruit & veggies. And according to our annual blood tests…we are very healthy.
The same doctors that rant about our health, then drink alcohol, eat fried foods, do drugs, and smoke tobacco. Blah-blah-blah.
Ok doctor can you tell us what to eat if you have no much money? Or Keto for poor people?
Doc, I can feel the discomfort in my head or stomach when I eat something that is not healthy. Thanks for the warning.
Well, now I need Salmon!! Time to stop after my farmers market tomorrow!
Hi I Love Cooking Fresh Samon on Grill & Sum-x frying Pan on stove both ways with Lemon Butter & OldBay + a lil Garlic n Parsley Flakes!!! witch u like best farm or wild??? I Like Oranges Pink Wild caught… from Costco!!!
Nobody should eat Wagyu beef. Or prime beef. Those farmers found a way to make it taste better, look better, have a higher fat content, and be totally consistent so you get the same quality every time. Me and my buddy are going cow hunting this weekend and we’re going to pick wild broccoli and brussel sprouts along the way for sides. We may snag a wild chicken as well, who knows!!! ONLY EAT WILD AND SUSTAINABLE!!!!!! You people are monsters.
I will never eat farmed fish again, after this. So, the question is: I love salmon, so what should I do? And, the other elephant in the room is, what other foods do the authorities (such as FDA in USA, and Health Canada) not warn us about? If this is so egregious? I guess the message is, caveat emptor, let the consumer beware.
Dr Berg is not telling you that wild fish has mercury in it …..
Farm raised shrimp don’t hold a candle to wild caught. They are tasteless and bland compared to the wild variety.
Thank you for being brilliant and understanding how much better farmed salmon in for pretty much everything.
So we all ate fish on Friday until the Folk on the hill said we didn’t have to. I wonder why?
I’m a commercial salmon fisherman on the west coast. There are salmon off of Prince of Wales Island, Alaska (like around the town of Craig) that have multicolored flesh. It is a mixture of bright orange and white. And it has a pattern to it. It looks like that ice cream that is a checkerboard mixture of orange sherbet and vanilla. The first time I filleted one I was kind of shocked. Sometimes on the west coast of California we catch the pure white fleshed kings, but not very often. I was told for years that these fish were feeding on squid rather than krill, and that’s why their meat is white. But I don’t think that’s true now. I think it’s genetic. Does anybody remember in the 80’s when farmed salmon ruined the king salmon fishery? The abundance of farmed salmon drove the price of kings in California (the best kings in the world IMO) down to 99c a pound. We were getting $4.00 a pound in the seventies. When that happened I got my commercial salmon permit for free from a disheartened fisherman. My prediction at the time was that eventually the public would learn to differentiate between farmed (disgusting) salmon and wild salmon. I was right (for about the only time in my life). Commercial wild salmon permits are not free anymore.
So true, go wild. Wild salmon tastes nothing like wild salmon. Farm raised fish not only is bad stuff for your diet but the fish destroys the sea bottom where the fish are raised by denuding it of any living organism.
I GOT CAUGHT OUT ON BUYING ORGANIC SALMON AND IT WAS FARM RAIZED WHEN I READ AT THE back of THE PACKET WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT I WAS CONSUMING FOR 4 YRS!
The best fish are the ones you catch on the Santa Monica pier. lol
Seems more of an american issue regarding GMO. Great to see people being more aware of it everywhere:)
So ignorant. “Ranching” is not a real thing. It’s a preservation technique to have hatcheries. It’s not as easy as she makes it sound to catch them as they return to spawn. Get the real story and watch documentaries made by real alaskans who have grown up around the wild alaska salmon fisheries. Not this ignorant city woman
I have only gained weight from eating salad. A pound a Fucking day. Too many carbs for me. I can only eat meat to stay lean. Explain this??
WHAT A BUNCH OF CRAP! LOL!!! GOOD… “Let HER [& anyone else who’s stupid enough to believe her] eat shit FROM Norway” 😉
Dont even mention farmed fish. Its disaster at every point. Its not about the taste man
I come from a desert country by the ocean. Our main staple of protein are sheep, chicken and fish; some cattle and camel. Our oceans are so polluted with our unfiltered sewage and medical waste. Every summer the city smells like dead fish because millions die at once. We fix the problem then after a few years go back to polluting and killing the ocean wild life. We now ship fish in from other countries even though we used to have the best fish in the Arabian gulf. I still eat local fish… ya I know scary… but what can we do? Our earth is polluted with chemicals from the 1990 war/ invasion and we eat the vegetation and eat the sheep that graze on it… I don’t know how to avoid food in my country. I can go organic I guess but do I still trust our local organic farmers? Honestly? I don’t know. The most famous organic farmer in our country just died of stomach cancer.
funny how Ive just watched people catch and cook salmon and its always red or pink, sometimes sllightly orange.
Can North American labels such as John West (salmon) Brunswick (sardines) be trusted?
It sounds like Bruno (Sacha Baron Cohen character, not fake ass Bruno Mars who sings Uptown Funk a song that make me want to punch him in his face) is interviewing Freddy here….
You may hit some ceviche please, chef Andyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy ������
What about imitation crab or lobster meat? My daughter loves that stuff but I’m not sure its actually good for her.
It’s hard to buy wild caught salmon unless you actually go catch it yourself. Most wild caught salmon are farm raised and companies don’t tell ppl that.
Just because salmon are caged in the middle ocean, now they can call it WILD-CAUGHT.
Farmed Norwegian Atlantic salmon was named most toxic food in the world.
I’d like to know Dr. Berg’s personal stance on health insurance. Does he have it?
How much is the difference in the cost of wild caught vs farm raised?
What does it mean farm raised fish. My husband and I eat Salmon at least twice a week.
HALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Just stop eating stupid salmon already. There are other healthy fish out there like sardines or herring and they are mostly wild cought.
Excellent!!!!!
Thanks so much…
I’ve been trying to tell my wife this.
I’ll send her this video
GMO, Genetically modified organism. Every living creature modifies its DNA by it self, so what are we talking about?
Really frozen? When you defrost a frozen fish it changes the consistency. No thank you I’ll get fresh fish.
farm fish is damaging the world.
wild salmon is ok unless you got the ones that have spawn next to a fish farm. Investigation as proven that the wild salmons are in danger due to the virus enhanced by the farms.
There is no detailed control of the fish at the fish farm. They just grow them rapidly with food pellets that are uncontrolled made.
They even use materials from Monsanto ( now Bayer )
Lots of Framed fish is deformed and most have toxic chemicals in their fat.
The health ranger says eating strawberries or peanut butter will pull the mercury from the fish
this stuff busts me up. i appreciate the info. i keep hearing organic this and grass fed that..well that’s all well n good but do you KNOW how FRUSTRATING it is to KNOW what you need to eat to be healthy & NOT BE ABLE TO AFFORD IT? it’s insane!! that alone stresses folks out! and the vast majority of the population? i’d say are either close to that or LIVING it..so where does that leave us? insanely LIVID! that’s where. to know how to fix a problem and to be surrounded by the information but not to be able to afford the stuff? THUD
“Invest in your health or pay with your life. Spend the extra money for wild caught fish.
“
that’s hysterical. people ASSUME that there IS EXTRA MONEY! not for a whole bunch of the population..they are having to choose between having electric, eating or their medications..GAH!!
@maxxell123 same logic: why would tobacco companies sell you something that is bad for you?
Who buys frozen shrimp? I mean if you want to enjoy them..not the crap in a box that you get for convenience.
can you prove Dr. Berg that omega 3 and 6 are good for our health?
Topic request
Is it ok to drink collagen powder for the skin?
I stopped eating farmed fish after watching a documentary called Farmed Norwegian Salmon World’s Most Toxic Food. You can find it on YouTube. Very informative and rather scary.
Farm raised = allergic reaction from antibiotics… curve ball out of the blue for me.
No mention of the contamination for Fukishima japan nuke reactors meltdown (7 of them) in 2010 still spewing into pacific ocean unchecked..it has made it to our west coast & alaska…in salmon & all seafood!
Dr. Berg, I’ve just come back from my heart specialist and my ticker is in perfect condition. I’ve been in keto for eight months and I’ve eaten at least 250 gramms of butter every single day. Take that, recommended daily allowance!
YES! There’s a YT vid called something like “Norwegian Salmon is the most poisonous fish in the world”.
I stopped buying smoked salmon for Norway loooong time ago. No mam!
If you raise salmon in aquaponics and you feed them natural healthy organic foods, they will be good to eat?
hmmm farmer fish bad stuff in it, hmmm wild caught good only got radiation from yukko shhheee maaa! yummie! ������
vietnamese farmed shrimp will get sugar and flavours added and are full of antibiotics. This is just a very stupid and badly made review.
“There is a scientific consensus that currently available food derived from GM crops poses no greater risk to human health than conventional food”
The krogers I’m near will have wild caught fish fillets mostly salmon for like anywhere $1.12 to $2.00 a piece. Larger krogers have the best prices, so if you have one near you check it out.
Awesome report, I’ve always asked myself this question. Y’all rock.
My friend from Norway said he hasn’t seen a wild Salmon in open sea for years.
Now please Dr. Berg answer my question,
Would you still do Keto if you couldn’t afford all organic and healthier variants?
how much did Whole Foods pay for this review?
you know you can tell us.
NOOOO!!!.do not boil them…steam them!!.boiling washes the flavour out
Who gives a damn about the taste? test for heavy metals and pollution, it will be a greater service to humanity, taste is subjective anyway

@maxxell123 Google it, you will that that you are wrong. The information in this video is accurate.
As an industry insider I can tell you that not all farmed Salmon is equal. Faroe Island Salmon is amazing and Norwegian are close. Most farmed salmon is breed from Atlantic Salmon species except for Ora King Salmon and Sanford King Salmon from New Zealand which are both very good. Wild salmon is by far the best but consider if there was no farmed salmon produced. How much would wild Salmon cost then? There would not be enough wild to meet demand and pressure would mount to over fish the wIld salmon. It wouldn’t make it to most peoples plate
I CAN’T STAND the taste of Farmed salmon and can’t believe that this lady was standing up for farmed salmon
Oh man I got two and a half pounds of Tilapia it isn’t wild-caught I’ll finish that then next time I’ll get the wild can the liver deal with the toxins in farm raised tilapia perhaps
I appreciate all the time and knowledge put into the vids but the reality is that farm raised is going to be the future. There are simply to many mouths putting a strain on the worlds wild fish supply. Perhaps the answer is to make a better farm raised fish.
I am looking to omega 3 containt….
From where farmed salmon get its omega 3?
Dont stop posting great videos andy i know youre gonna make it more power
Wild caught is always better when it comes to nutrition. I care about my body and the earth.
This man speaks the truth i even googled what he said and yes it does say that if at farms they do not use a “synthetic” dye (not even the natural stuff) the fish’s flesh will look grey or even white! ������ they are synthetically fed astaxanthin.
Andy these cooking videos are so good. I need to know where did you get you apron???
Bro plz try anything else. Only adding salt any one can do that.In our country 3 years kid can do that
Excuse me but it’s not because it’s GMO that it’s for sure raised with glyphosate 00.30.
All salmon is toxic, but wild is less toxic than farm raised.
It is so sad that the public does not understand the dangers of this both for personal health and for the wild fish population -the fish farms pollute at an alarming rate Thank you Dr. Berg
There are 7 species of salmon. King(biggest), pink(most numerous), sockeye,(green head red body very numerous also) silver(chrome torpedo most fun to fish for), red(most beautiful) Atlantic(super rare and looks most like a silver), and farm salmon(frankenfish). Red salmon is by far the most superior salmon. A red salmon has no teeth and naturally eats mainly krill giving it the best flavor of all salmon and it’s flesh is a vivid red despite a diet of krill.
I can’t find any info on una salmon, can you help me find it??
Do you know how much antibiotics they use how much steroids they use when we worked on it if we got it anywhere near our eyes we had to get our eyes flushed out completely �� not worth it Andyyyyyy
Great vid. We need more people like you teaching the M’asses
Would farmed salmon not be the wrong color? That lady sounds like an idiot.
Bomb �� make ckn fettuccine alfredo, or make some bomb spaghetti ive been wanting a sphagetti or lasagna. Or ribs? Make lemonade slice cucumbers & throw inside lemonade. Tag me in it�� im jk
Ok. I’m convinced. I will ask my local market about Una. I will definitely be trying this technique. My thanks to your papa. Ciao Bella.
my old boss thought that real tuna steaks were horrible, he’d only eat tinned tuna. Hmm….scary
that fish looks SO good, but i would make it well done. i don’t like half cooked foods.
Great video!
I can’t seem to find the link for the Pcb’s in the description box?
Andy bro please tell logan to call me please bro iam really need him +212659299690
Dr. Berg how do you feel about a lot of mainstream fitness idols talking down upon the keto diet? I just watched a clip where Jillian Michaels says it is unhealthy for you cell development.
Just stop putting dead animals in your stomach… I eat a lot of veggies,salads,avocados etc. sometimes I eat diary. Cheese �� etc. I don’t drink milk. And eat a lot of fruits. Be careful with fruits. Make sure it’s organic specially apples,grapes. Etc. eat seeds almonds,pitachos, etc. and exercise. I stop eating animals anymore I quit a few years ago it just makes me nauseous. All that blood ewww and the way they kill the animals it’s just disgusting.
There’s a better way to cook salmon as well as other types of fish like sea bass. You should try doing a steamed Chinese style. Email me at [email protected] gmail.com and I would be happy to share the recipe
I did a quick Google search for “raw salmon” and all I saw was the bright coloured salmon. I honestly I’ve never seen that dark salmon that looks like venison.
sooooooo keep over-fishing until there’s no fish left then?..
This asshole works/owns a fish farm. Horrific polluters of the Pacific
