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.
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
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!
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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
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
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.
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.
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
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
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
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.
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
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!!!
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.
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.
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)
@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
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 eat around 4 cans of sardines in water a week. My brand, Seasons, is $2.12 a can at Walmart and has 22g of protein and 1700mg of omega-3s. Wonderful stuff!
Amazing ! I planned to eat lots of mussels and sardines during my summer vacations, UA-cam recommendations are the best ! Now I'm a bit bummed for tuna and tilapia, especially tilapia because it's delicious but I get it the farm raised one are a definite no-no
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
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!
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!
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.
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
Good information. Personally I don't eat most fish because of the taste. But my children love to eat fish. Is US farm raised tilapia okay to eat? Should we be concerned about eating lake and river caught fish?
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 😂😂
Good Stuff Thomas! I wanted to share a recipe of something I have been makin'. I'm on an OMAD and STRICTLY carnivore with Monday all day fasting! It's a 3 day - "fish casserole" kind of creation. Consists of a can of Albacore tuna in spring water, a can of sardines - wild caught in water and a vacuum packed large piece of wild caught alaskan salmon (coho or sockeye) from Trader Joes, all cooked on my outside covered grille. I put the salmon on a foil boat out on the covered grille and while its cookin', I make a foil boat platter with about 20" of foil, folded long way in1/2 and then cup up the outer edge (about an inch) to make a boat. Then scoup in the tuna (after draining water) and the anchovies -drained- and break up it all and stir it up. After the salmon cooks (about 15 minutes) I scoup it into the mixture and break it all up and stir it in. Then I scoup it all into the foil boat and flatten it out and put a couple scoups of beef tallow (fat) on top for oil.Then back in to the grille for about 10 -15 more minutes. But I also make about 6 local free range raw eggs whipped in a bowl and pour it on top and kind of stir it in. In 10 minutes I have a 3 day casserole that I divide in three and last me for 3 meals (days)! It only comes to about $5 per day to eat! It's awesome!!
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.
When I was fresh out of college and poor I would make a "food run" to my grandparents house where they would stock me up with a bunch of food. One time they gave me a ton of canned tuna. But it was albacore tuna. I thought "Hell yeah, tuna sandwiches for days!" Turns out that because of the mercury content in albacore you're only supposed to eat like three servings per month. I ate it every day for a week and a half. Then I noticed that if I stood for a while my balance was off and my skin was flaking...in February. Turns out I got an acute case of mercury poisoning! So yeah, you gotta watch that shit.
I remember when I stopped eating tilapia. I was noticing a really dirty after taste bite. 🤮 I told my mom she noticed it too. she thought it was from leaving it out in water. Then we looked it up and she stopped buying it. 😊
As an Alaska of course I'm well aware of wild salmon, and usually recommend people stay away from farmed salmon. I recently moved to the country of Georgia, where I discovered the oilfish. I had never heard of this one before. It was high in fat. But kind of waxy. So I wondered if it was an omega-3 powerhouse or something else. It turned out to be in the absolutely avoid category. Essentially it's chemically swimming plastic. The oils don't digest at all and it causes stomach problems. So why is it here? It's from East Asian oceans mostly. But I'm guessing it's caught by Chinese fishers who are just selling this garbage fish to make some cash, and poor countries like Georgia are their customers. But the trout here is good.

what about cod??
Does it matter the type of salmon? Pink salmon or sockeye salmon? Thanks👍
GOOD FISH: Wild salmon, sardines and muscles
BAD FISH: Shark, Tuna Tilapia

bigger the fish, smaller the safety
It really depends on the tuna. Yellowfin is best, albacore is worst. Watch the vid.

Farmed tilapia's omega 3 vs 6 is out of whack as well, it's super high in omega 6, which negates the benefit of eating fish in the first place.

After reading the comments , I realized that I’ve been missing out on sardines.
You've opened my eyes bro., I'm not sure if you understand such idiom but I meant, now I'm aware how to pick sea foods.
Holy moly just pulled out 8 8"-14.5" talapia from the river today. Never had any issue fishing them wild.
Thanks mate I truly learnt alot from this video especially regarding tilapia and I'm super glad canned sardines are a endorsed- cheers
I eat around 4 cans of sardines in water a week. My brand, Seasons, is $2.12 a can at Walmart and has 22g of protein and 1700mg of omega-3s. Wonderful stuff!
Amazing ! I planned to eat lots of mussels and sardines during my summer vacations, UA-cam recommendations are the best ! Now I'm a bit bummed for tuna and tilapia, especially tilapia because it's delicious but I get it the farm raised one are a definite no-no
The albacore tuna was a shocker for me. Good to know. Thanks, Thomas!
My husband tried tilapia fish and we got so sick. We won’t be eating that anymore. I love salmon though , we just wanted to try a cheaper option.
I eat salmon once a week .its very satisfying
Where is it coming from? See this, then decide if it's right for you:

@@jimdenoncourt3847 yikes but I get mines from health food store and it does say wild caught 🤔
@Thomas DeLauer
just a minor typo the correct spelling for the #3 sea food to choose in your description is "mussels" not "muscles".
He's thinking about his own muscles, let's work out bro.....DUH
I’m a new pescatarian. Appreciate the information. New subscriber👍
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
Yes I only buy from the us or Mexico no other countries
Good fish: Anything expensive
Bad fish: Anything affordable
Sardines are expensive now?

You can find them as cheap as 79 cents a can...
Love me some mussels! I also enjoy walleye and orange ruffy. My absolute favorite is catfish, good Southern soul food.
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 😁
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.
Thank you my brother 👏🏾👏🏾 you are a superstar 💫
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!
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.
This video is great and very scientific. Thanks.
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
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
Should:
- Wild caught salmon
- Sardines
- Mussels
Should NOT:
- Shark 🦈
- Tuna
- Tilapia
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
THANKS SO MUCH for this video. By the way, it's spelled "Mussel."
he must've be looking in the mirror when he typed that.
I thi k he was joking that protein gives us muscles, play on words 😂😂
Good information. Personally I don't eat most fish because of the taste. But my children love to eat fish. Is US farm raised tilapia okay to eat? Should we be concerned about eating lake and river caught fish?
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 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
Good Stuff Thomas! I wanted to share a recipe of something I have been makin'. I'm on an OMAD and STRICTLY carnivore with Monday all day fasting! It's a 3 day - "fish casserole" kind of creation. Consists of a can of Albacore tuna in spring water, a can of sardines - wild caught in water and a vacuum packed large piece of wild caught alaskan salmon (coho or sockeye) from Trader Joes, all cooked on my outside covered grille. I put the salmon on a foil boat out on the covered grille and while its cookin', I make a foil boat platter with about 20" of foil, folded long way in1/2 and then cup up the outer edge (about an inch) to make a boat. Then scoup in the tuna (after draining water) and the anchovies -drained- and break up it all and stir it up. After the salmon cooks (about 15 minutes) I scoup it into the mixture and break it all up and stir it in. Then I scoup it all into the foil boat and flatten it out and put a couple scoups of beef tallow (fat) on top for oil.Then back in to the grille for about 10 -15 more minutes. But I also make about 6 local free range raw eggs whipped in a bowl and pour it on top and kind of stir it in. In 10 minutes I have a 3 day casserole that I divide in three and last me for 3 meals (days)! It only comes to about $5 per day to eat! It's awesome!!
great watch, Thomas. i would love to know what your thoughts are on walleye. Minnesota wild-caught, canadian, farmed; what do you think?
Freddie Mercury is not heavy but dense and very good for health 👍🙏🙏
That is a big exception, his real name is Dark golden Mercury, there is big difference...
The shark's face at 7 minutes is priceless. The most surprised shark in the history of surprised sharks.
I love eating Mediterranean sardines with white rice 💖
Sea bass is a great source of protein, low in fat and omega 3 😊. Super tasty too.
Best:
Wild Caught Salmon
Sardines
Mussels
Worst:
Shark
Tuna
Tilapia
This is Medical Medium information, you should give him credit for the information here.
I am allergic to Salmon. Is fish oil from sardines and anchovy ok to increase my HLD cholesterol? is Pollock fish ok? Is flax seed good for HDL?
Very well made video with facts and most importantly with the approach to sustainability , glad that I love sardines and wild caught salmon!
Your a great physical specimen, wish i still looked like you at 68. I competed in the 68 & 72 olympics (weightlifting). thanks-
Is there a more optimized human in UA-cam? This guy is a machine.
what do you think of canned Mackerel ?, tastes a lot like sardines and is like 1 tenth the price.
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.
Thanks for this! How do you feel/know about fish like cod, mackerel, dorado, trout,and halibut. Thanks Thomas!
Mackeral is really good. High in omega oil and a good source of calcium.
New Zealand Green Lip Mussels are the best!
Salmon and sardines are “clean” (fins and scales).
Tuna is not though right? They don’t have scales I thought
I was looking for tilapia recipes and this popped up 🥺 I'm still eating what I've already bought lol
When I was fresh out of college and poor I would make a "food run" to my grandparents house where they would stock me up with a bunch of food. One time they gave me a ton of canned tuna. But it was albacore tuna. I thought "Hell yeah, tuna sandwiches for days!" Turns out that because of the mercury content in albacore you're only supposed to eat like three servings per month. I ate it every day for a week and a half. Then I noticed that if I stood for a while my balance was off and my skin was flaking...in February. Turns out I got an acute case of mercury poisoning! So yeah, you gotta watch that shit.
Jek Tono Porkins
i ate tuna sandwiches everyday for half my life and im fine lol
I remember when I stopped eating tilapia. I was noticing a really dirty after taste bite. 🤮 I told my mom she noticed it too. she thought it was from leaving it out in water. Then we looked it up and she stopped buying it. 😊
Thank you
Tilapia is just nasty. Not the first time I've heard this. Love mussels though yay!
As an Alaska of course I'm well aware of wild salmon, and usually recommend people stay away from farmed salmon. I recently moved to the country of Georgia, where I discovered the oilfish. I had never heard of this one before. It was high in fat. But kind of waxy. So I wondered if it was an omega-3 powerhouse or something else. It turned out to be in the absolutely avoid category. Essentially it's chemically swimming plastic. The oils don't digest at all and it causes stomach problems. So why is it here? It's from East Asian oceans mostly. But I'm guessing it's caught by Chinese fishers who are just selling this garbage fish to make some cash, and poor countries like Georgia are their customers. But the trout here is good.
I used to trout fish in Colorado, man fresh trout is phenomenal....beyond delicious
As is wild salmon
