HEY its the Seattle Public Market I grew up going here, until the drug addicts took over downtown Seattle and the surrounding area all the way south to San Diego. It's so sad 😞
As an Alaskan commercial fisherwoman, I thank you for speaking up about wild caught salmon. In Alaska the fisheries are incredibly well managed and I would never had thought of it as a career if I didn't think that Alaska's wild salmon was the most sustainable and healthy form of meat.
My 90 yo mother has been eating tuna fish almost every day for decades. She has been tested for heavy metals and turned out not to have a problem. Her mind is clear and she is in general good health.
Same with the entire country of Japan. They eat *way* more tuna & other fish that supposedly have high levels of mercury and seem to be doing just fine.
Need to eat: 1) Wild caught salmon 2) Sardines 3) Muscles Stay Away From: 1) Shark 2) Tuna (but Yellowfin is okay) 3) Telapia That is very a responsible video. Thanks for sharing.
No one EVER talks about sustainability when it comes to these health videos. OMG, this is SO refreshing. I'm a new sub, but the moral component that you've added to the videos that I have seen is just great. I really connect with it. THANK YOU!
4:50 you WANT frozen, unless you’re getting it straight from a 1-2 day trip where you know the fishers didn’t freeze it. Otherwise, it’s frozen before and then defrosted. They flash freeze the fish straight up, then defrost when put in the store. If you buy it frozen, it was never thawed. Won’t affect nutrients, but some people find a texture difference
Just make sure it is wild caught. I have a great book on the 150 healthiest foods and the author says the difference between wild caught and farm raised salmon makes them practically two different species.
That is so weird about what he said about the sardines because when I got really sick and couldn't eat much I was chowing down on sardines with olive oil and wow I have to say they really brought the life back to me
sardines are kind of an acquired taste for many, but they are so good for you and relatively cheap. They make for a good snack that will protect your heart
When I first started keto, after Bary surgery, I ate a lot of Whey protein isolate powder, plus a lot of cheese, both dairy based and super low in iron. After about 6 months of keto, and I was doing amazing, like perfect blood panels and everything, but I was kind of run down, so my doctor checked my iron. I was low. Too much protein that didn't have any iron with it, and the iron in my supplements was utterly worthless. I just needed more red meat, but to catch back up, I started eating liver and those little tins of Mussels, plus smoked baby oysters. They are crazy high in iron(like 40-50 percent of the real RDA of super available heme iron) plus all mussels and oysters are sustainably farmed and best part is they don't even feed them, they just filter the water, actually reducing the algae blooms so the water ends up better. Thus, if you have issues with iron, and don't like liver, mussels are your ticket. Fresh frozen farmed mussels from New Zealand are also amazingly cheap, like 2-3 bucks/lb. Since they have very thin shells, I'd estimate they are about 1/2 meat, so a super deal.
I have been a Pescatarian since 1985. I only eat wild Alaskan salmon, sardines, anchovies, and muscles, along with my remaining plant based diet. This video was spot on. I enjoyed watching; thumbs-up!
Which salmon? When I’m at the store they have all different ones that say wild caught salmon? Buckeye wild caught salmon? Do they make different muscles to buy? Which plant based foods do you eat!?
@@1Life2Live007 there are different species of salmon. I think you meant sockeye. Anyway they have slightly different color and flavor, but they are all delicious and healthy. Try different ones and see if you have a personal preference.
So you tend to get heavy metals in your ears Phil Collins felt the same way look up the condition of Phil Collins maybe you are there already I said speaking louder maybe you are there already
Finally, somebody catches on to mussels! They have been my go to protein for years...everyone thought I was crazy. Not so much recently...great video, great job
Wow, first time I’ve heard you……Great information. Thx! I have type 2 diabetes but also gastroparesis. I don’t know what to eat anymore. I’m always in pain.
I agree with wild caught salmon and sardines for clean fish. However I got Poisoned from mussels a few times. Mussels and shellfish in general deteriorate quickly and can be bad and have made me sick very easily. I stay away from eating them. Is there such a thing as farmed sardines? And I would think they are not clean and not healthy.
I worked in a fish processing plant and we had to separate fish from certain lakes that had known higher mercury levels. We had special codes to use on the labels. I wonder if the end customers knew this.
You just blew my mind with that last Tilapia bit...I just converted into pescatarian, and this was the most clear concise videos I've came across. Thanks dude
Hey man, just wanted to say that I like that this is a well researched and informative video. You have a good stage presence, the content was on point and its just fun to watch! Cheers, and keep spreading the good information
I agree with everything you said except i eat mainly tilapia because I farm them myself. They are easy to keep in the backyard they grow from baby to table in 9 months and I only feed them organic feed and I keep my water crystal clear. I have family come over to eat them all the time and they say they taste like salt water snapper because my fish are raised in totes no dirt no grass no access to poop. But I do agree about the farm raised tilapia I wouldn't eat them if you gave them to me and in the wild they're mainly vegetarians and my tilapia cuz I also have the vegetable garden we give the scraps to them and they love em .
Rarely Flounder is ever found and purchased at stores here.. They usually just have Tilapia because it's cheaper and more common.. Thankfully and luckily Flounder was available at our local Kroger.. It's been years too. Such a crazy coincidence! Definitely not going to take this for granted! Thanks! :D
Excellent video mate many thanks, Best Sardines I ever had are Scottish sardines you wont believe how good sardines can taste, n of course Wild Alaskan Salmon not available most of the times but when I can get it Is my favourite fish along with dover its so easy to tell the difference between real salmon n farmed its OILY its RED looking at it its like looking at Mahogany n farmed salmon is like looking at pine wood lol cheers your SPOT ON
You can, to this day, collect mercury from rivers in Idaho. They used to dump mercury into rivers because it will attach itself to gold. This made gold (already being heavy) heavier and easier to harvest (especially the finer gold). The state of Idaho does not recommend the consumption of Brown Trout because of its high mercury content/contamination.
Great video! I would add that a lot of homesteading communities are farm raising tilapia here in the US and are doing so through aquaponics and hydroponics. Something to look into for healthy raised and sustainable tilapia and other fish not available wild
Usually I am skeptical about do and don't videos, however, you are well informed. I am trying to increase my intake of fish because of health reasons. Salmon and Sardines are two fish that I focus on eating more already. I am surprised about the muscles. I always though the shell fish tend to have more heavy metals. Good video.
I just had some sardines for the first Time in muster sauce I added ketchup I loved the taste knowing they are good for me I will eat them for rest of my life
Always useful info. I love wild salmon but am trying sardines, anchovies and mackerel for less heavy metal lately. Oysters have loads of EPA and DHA and lots of good cholesterol to support making testosterone endogenously.
Just subscribed. Love the detail! I've been a vegetarian for over 25 years, but only eat what I fish/hunt (mostly for the last 2 years). Having a 3-year old daughter, and a 2nd kid on the way, I'm watching out for contaminants and mercury in the fish that I catch. My 6 best fish to catch and eat would be: 1. Freshwater stocked Rainbow and Brook Trout (not Brown Trout) where you know the quality of the water. I mostly fish at Walden Pond (really clean water), and Spot Pond (a backup reservoir). The fisheries are also well maintained and the fish are in great condition when released in the Spring, but sometimes not as great a condition in the Fall (long story). 2. Freshwater pan fish where you know the quality of the water. Quality of the water is important. However, crappie, bluegill, etc. are great tasting, and low in contaminants. 3. Freshwater yellow perch. Size matters, so nothing bigger than a foot, they are good tasting (but not as good as trout or pan fish, imo). 4. Saltwater flounder - I didn't want to ignore saltwater fish. Size matters, so nothing over 20" would be a good eating size. Low in contaminants and mercury, and quite abundant near the shore in sandy areas, also great tasting. 5. American Shad. Great healthy fish (they have nearly twice as much omega 3's per weight than wild salmon), but you have to catch them in the spring to late spring. 6. Atlantic Mackerel. The same high content of Omega 3's as American Shad, but also contain high amounts of Vitamin B12 and phosphatidylserine. All of these fish are very low in mercury, and also low in contaminants, depending on size, and the quality of water. However, all are healthy, high in omega 3's, and great tasting. I hope this helps!
You only eat what you hunt and kill? That is fucking awesome!! I pay an arm and a leg for meat eggs and milk cause I only buy pasture raised or farm. I buy my meat from slagel farms. I used to get the diarrhea all the time and was diagnosed with ibs. I haven't had the runs in over 2 years now. Definitely an inspiration to see someone living off the land. You are an amazing human.
Your vegetarian but you only eat what you fish and hunt. Double take wubalubadubdub what??? Well I'm vegan but I sometimes eat animal products and wear leather sooo. Whaaat??? Huh??? Lol... oh definitions how you be... so difinitive.
I went to the ER recently and was diagnosed with Scombroid Poisoning .... The Dr was like: "Did you eat Talapia recently?" .... Yes 2 days before .... he said "STAY AWAY FROM THAT FISH AS ITS THE WORST FISH IN THE WORLD" - Never Again will i eat it. (He said he sees this alot from Talapia)
Thanks TD! I just got some sardines in water from sprouts the other day, I figured, for 3 bucks, I'll try them. I just needed a little more motivation to dig in!
For men, canned Mackerel is shown to lower the risk of high blood pressure. However, it has less protein and less omega 3 than sardnines so eh, pick your choice, but sardines may be healthier.
I've been buying Wild Caught Tilapia from a very reputable organic grocery in Maryland. It is supposedly flash frozen right on the Boat and sold to my grocery. Do you think this is still unsafe? Confused but looking to hear your advice. Thank You. je
if there are concerns with canned sardines try: Bueno, Ortiz or Montano. They are all in glass jars, and i believe the best flavor Ive tried personally. Thanks so much for great vids!!!
@john thonig well HAPPY BIRTHDAY for the person that is what I would call A great birthday..we are having A crawfish boil with corn potatoes mushrooms and sausage...we should get together sometime and invite ALL our friends
Fahad Bashraheel those things are all Bottom Feeders they eat the garbage and shit off the bottom of the Bay what do you think would you eat something that eat shit and mud and muck yeah they're pretty tasty but everything that's really tasty is usually bad for you
DREW MURDAUGH well cows eat grass and shit and grass is pretty much dirt that grows because of dead stuff and poop so who really cares. Plus, with the cooking process for crustacean, it isn’t really an issue.
Hi Thomas, another great video, thanks! I’m one of those people who don’t eat a lot of fish, so I’m not sure how to prepare it. Could you give us a few ways to cook/eat them in a future video? Also, for sardines, do we eat the whole thing, bones and all? And mussels, do we eat the stomach and it’s contents? I’m a bit more familiar with shellfish, but am now repulsed by the stomach. Any suggestions? Thanks so much! Your videos are always so helpful, informative, very professional.
I’m so glad I came across this video! I’m a pescatarian and literally eat tilapia multiple times a week, and always buy albacore tuna! I had it in my head that the albacore was the best kind. Thank you for addressing this!
I grew up off catfish .. funny thing is I never heard of tilapia until about 2007,2008 .. that’s when moms swapped out the catfish for the tilapia.. the shit was fye with some spaghetti 😂😂
Absolutely love everything you've said here! Especially about sustainability, and of course the fact that you went into depth explaining the risks of mercury latent fishes. Sadly I'm a life-long tuna addict, and salmon too of course, and I can't help but find myself depressed about what our human race has done to their eco systems and species as a whole... Salmon can grow up to five feet in length and over 100 pounds, that's literally my height and weight. It is horrifying to know that this most popular fish is dying out. Because of, DUH, us and our love for it's taste and texture. And farmed salmon is almost never healthy. Please look into it..

GOOD FISH: Wild salmon, sardines and muscles
BAD FISH: Shark, Tuna Tilapia
Sean Ferri not muscles but mussels
So I shouldn't have bitten my biceps?
Wait why Tuna ?
bigger the fish, smaller the safety
It really depends on the tuna. Yellowfin is best, albacore is worst. Watch the vid.
Best Fish: Worst Fish:
- Wild Caught Salmon - Sharks
- Sardines in Oil - Tuna
- Mussels - Tilapia
he doesn't say water vs oil for the sardines in this video but in a later one, he says to only get them in water.

People are eating tons of junkfood a week and we sit here wondering if a type of fish is bad.
Yes, but you can only control yourself and what you eat, so the information is good :)

Great and informative video .what do you think about shrimp what part of the scale does it fall .
Sharks are very important to the ocean. Don’t eat them
Important in what way?
It's probably ok to eat a little bit of them. They cost a lot of money. That, combined with this video should help to keep consumption down.
Green532nm1 and Gordon Ramsay’s documentary where he went to China to help prevent consumption of shark
@@Ken-iu2zp predators balance the ecosystem. Likewise, tunas are also amazing predators.
I eat them, what you gonna do about it
I love me some crappie and cat fishing... HAD IT ALL MY LIFE and I'm not changing now....❤️❤️❤️
@john thonig right on my country boy knows how to survive ... my freezer is full of the same stuff and so are my kids freezer
@john thonig well HAPPY BIRTHDAY for the person that is what I would call A great birthday..we are having A crawfish boil with corn potatoes mushrooms and sausage...we should get together sometime and invite ALL our friends
What is your opinion on haddock? Healthy or not.
Sardines are my favorite snack, plus they cheap
The Captain 🙌🏿👏🏿
Not for long
They taste disgusting .how do you do it
Pull the meat apart with a fork, add an egg along with chives and with salt & pepper and you got sardines burgers. Bloody delicious
I like kippersnacks better
I love eating Mediterranean sardines with white rice 💖
Great Video.I learned a whole lot in a short time.Thanks for making this video🙂👍👏
Glad he said a canned fish. I’m too lazy to cook.
Sam Fraser same
Sam Fraser 😭😭😭😭
Relate
Pleasant surprise
I hate having my apartment reek of fishy cooking smells
So for me, sardines are where it's at 😁
Salmon and sardines are “clean” (fins and scales).
Tuna is not though right? They don’t have scales I thought
Great video man. One more question what about haddock and cod are they safe to eat and beneficial?
Sea bass is a great source of protein, low in fat and omega 3 😊. Super tasty too.
The albacore tuna was a shocker for me. Good to know. Thanks, Thomas!
I’m a new pescatarian. Appreciate the information. New subscriber👍
I'm addicted to canned sardines.
IAmAgainst Sardines doesn't have scales which makes it an abomination to
The Most High
What do you mean they don't? It takes me 15 minutes to remove the skin and the spine of each sardine before I can start eating..
Whaaaat? You are supposed to eat the whole thing in one gulp.....very yummy especially with a glass of chardonnay.
IAmAgainst The bone is my favorite!!! especially on Salmon!!!
IAmAgainst ew
I eat lots of Herring and Mackrel...i recommend King Oscar brand
Great video I really liked it.
But what about lobsters, shrimps and crabs?
Thanks.
I don't like crabs ! I got it ounce!
Those are all bottom feeders so I imagine the same applies to them as well.
Ephrain Reliford their meats are almost pure protein. They’re also crustaceans, not fish! Had to be that guy lol.
Fahad Bashraheel those things are all Bottom Feeders they eat the garbage and shit off the bottom of the Bay what do you think would you eat something that eat shit and mud and muck yeah they're pretty tasty but everything that's really tasty is usually bad for you
DREW MURDAUGH well cows eat grass and shit and grass is pretty much dirt that grows because of dead stuff and poop so who really cares. Plus, with the cooking process for crustacean, it isn’t really an issue.
Good fish: Anything expensive
Bad fish: Anything affordable
Sardines are expensive now?
@@HANA-mw1rf
You can find them as cheap as 79 cents a can...
This video is great and very scientific. Thanks.
Hey Thomas, always love your videos! Wondering your thoughts on other shellfish, especially crab.
Tilapia is just nasty. Not the first time I've heard this. Love mussels though yay!
Hello What do you think about Halibut and Ono fish?
Hi Thomas, another great video, thanks! I’m one of those people who don’t eat a lot of fish, so I’m not sure how to prepare it. Could you give us a few ways to cook/eat them in a future video? Also, for sardines, do we eat the whole thing, bones and all? And mussels, do we eat the stomach and it’s contents? I’m a bit more familiar with shellfish, but am now repulsed by the stomach. Any suggestions? Thanks so much! Your videos are always so helpful, informative, very professional.
This is Medical Medium information, you should give him credit for the information here.
Thanks for your advice ..
very informative, keep up the great work!
New Zealand Green Lip Mussels are the best!
Should:
- Wild caught salmon
- Sardines
- Mussels
Should NOT:
- Shark 🦈
- Tuna
- Tilapia
Very well made video with facts and most importantly with the approach to sustainability , glad that I love sardines and wild caught salmon!
I’m so glad I came across this video! I’m a pescatarian and literally eat tilapia multiple times a week, and always buy albacore tuna! I had it in my head that the albacore was the best kind. Thank you for addressing this!
Same as. Farmed Fish is not meant to be Good.
I always found tilapia low quality.
The second video of yours I watched and learned so much already! Subscribing!
Since scallops and muscles are so similar would scallops be healthy as well?
Love scallops, yum 😋
I grew up off catfish .. funny thing is I never heard of tilapia until about 2007,2008 .. that’s when moms swapped out the catfish for the tilapia.. the shit was fye with some spaghetti 😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@Gabriel Does Politics you haven’t tried it? Spicy Salmon w spaghetti is the best
Earned my sub with great info. Thank you.
Is shirmp ok?
Absolutely love everything you've said here! Especially about sustainability, and of course the fact that you went into depth explaining the risks of mercury latent fishes. Sadly I'm a life-long tuna addict, and salmon too of course, and I can't help but find myself depressed about what our human race has done to their eco systems and species as a whole... Salmon can grow up to five feet in length and over 100 pounds, that's literally my height and weight. It is horrifying to know that this most popular fish is dying out. Because of, DUH, us and our love for it's taste and texture. And farmed salmon is almost never healthy. Please look into it..
Alright cutie
Best:
Wild Caught Salmon
Sardines
Mussels
Worst:
Shark
Tuna
Tilapia
As I was eating tuna from a pouch, pre gym 😂😂
