Read This Before Eating Seafood

While fish and seafood have many health benefits and are a great part of a healthy diet, there is one thing you need to keep in mind before eating them regularly. Some fish are dangerous to eat on a regular basis; they contain harmful chemicals or other man-made substances that can cause health issues if consumed in high amounts.

Bluefin tuna is one of the most well-known “unsafe” fish to consume regularly. We use quotations because this fish is safe to eat every once in a while, meaning that it isn't completely unsafe. Bluefin tuna are endangered, and many contain high levels of mercury and PCBs. It is recommended that you only eat bluefish tuna once a month.

Orange roughy is another fish that is known to have high levels of mercury. Like with bluefin tuna, limit your intake of this fish. Farmed salmon is also worth being wary of; many of these farms employ less-than-stellar practices that endanger wild fish. Many salmon farms are full of disease and parasites. Try to buy freshwater-farmed or open-net salmon.

Mahi-mahi caught by troll lines are considered the best way to consume mahi-mahi. Other methods of catching this popular fish endanger other sea life, such as sea turtles, sharks, and seabirds. If you buy mahi-mahi, try to check how it was originally caught.

Ultimately, it's important that you pay attention to what you eat. Certain fish can be dangerous to eat in high quantities, while others are endangered and need to be treated respectfully. Seafood and fish are great additions to your diet, when done the right way.
