This is such encouraging information. I’ve been eating a lot of fish lately and I think it’s a better alternative to other meats. It’s high in protein, substantially healthier, and this is just more reason for me to keep incorporating it!

If we look at the comparison between fisheries and livestock are having a big gap. Some possible reason why people like eating fish than poultry because fish content much protein which is really fresh from the nature not like a livestock, if we look at around, farmer raise their livestock by eating them any product organic and this is actually not good to be consumed by people as a meat. Beside that like jack mentioned livestock may carry bacteria and other microorganism with them especially for pork,cow,chicken are easily vulnerable by virus.

Does anyone else see the irony that because of the pollution caused by land meats, water meats that create less pollution have become too polluted to eat much of? I think locally some of the recommendations are that you eat no more than one serving of fish PER MONTH due to how bad it is.

I guess his study confirmed what most people know in the first place… that anything that is farmed will use up more resources to grow and nurture than anything in its natural state. Also, it is often mentioned in most nutrition books that fish provides a healthier source of fat and protein than either meat or poultry. The omega 3 fatty acids provided by fish like salmon has also been shown to have multiple health benefits.

It is obvious that seafood is more healthful than poultry and other flesh. This makes it obvious that one should opt for seafood in regular terms as compared to the other forms of non- vegetarian food. Also the other forms of meat may carry bacteria and other microorganism with them. This makes one prone to infections and other host of health problems.

It shoudn't take a scientist to figure out that wild seafood has less eco impact than poultry and beef, which are cultivated at great expense. "Wild' anything is lower impact than 'not wild' since anything wild has found a way to live in balance with nature.
