Answer 3

Okies, well, I found a really good list that shows you the worst and best fish to consume ... It's in the link in my sources =^^= ... Some of the best include:
Arctic Char
Catfish
Salmon (Wild)
Tilapia
etc.
These fish are low in environmental contaminants and contain high amounts of Omega Fatty-3 Acids, which are extremely good for you. They can also help improve the appearance of your hair and skin!
The worst list includes:
Cod
Monkfish
Chilean Seabass
Salmon (Atlantic Farmed)
etc.

These are either high in mercury or PCB's.

I would stick to white fish. salmon is a tasty fish but has a lot of fat in it. I would go for a freash tuna or a mackeral.

Answer 5

Salmon.

Answer 6

This is a complex issue to understand, I think. Logically we'd think farm-raised (by the way, "ocean-raised" fish is the same as "farm-raised" just a new marketing name. Farm-raised fish are fish in pens in the ocean and when this got a bad wrap they changed the name, that's all) would be better for our environment and better for us. But we have learned that farm raised means that the fish don't get lots of swimming room, are prone to disease (and therefore fed antibiotics) and can get out and infect the fish in the wild. They are also high in mercury.
Let's look at Salmon, for example, since it's an incredibly healthful fish full of omega 3s. Since Farmed Salmon are fed pellets instead of what they eat in the wild three elements are affected.

First, the food that they normally eat in the wild converts into powerful omega 3s for us; the farm raised salmon doesn't have as high nutritional value.
Second, the food they eat naturally helps them turn that beautiful pink color to which we are accustomed; the farm raised are therefore fed colorings to make them more palatable to our eye.
Finally, the food they eat affects how they taste and there is truly no comparison in flavor or texture.
When choosing to eat fish, we must consider:

The importance of fish to our health with valuable Omega-3s, protein, low fat.
The sustainability of the fish, that it is not overfished and that it is safe for our environment.
The health of the fish and the life of the fish (what it eats, how it lives).
Cost. We really can't afford to eat farmed salmon.
Taste.
And it's important we make sure THE FISH is healthy and therefore truly healthful.
Farm-raised fish are raised in small pens in the ocean secured by nets or in ponds, depending upon the fish species. As with most industries, maximizing revenues is key so they will stock a pond with as many fish as they can leaving very little room for the fish to move about freely and they are fed pellets of food instead of their natural food (sounds like the chicken and cattle scenarios all over again). This, in turn, doesn't allow them to use their muscles naturally nor convert their natural food into powerful Omega 3s for us.
Therefore, farm-raised fish doesn't have the health benefits of Wild fish. Therefore, farm-raised salmon doesn't have the color of natural salmon and they are fed colorings to help make the salmon palatable for our plates.
"Wild salmon become pink by eating sea creatures like krill, which contain a carotenoid called astaxanthin. Farmed salmon are naturally grayish but turn pink when they are fed various sources of astaxanthin, including one that is chemically synthesized and others that originate from yeast or microalgae." NY Times, Marian Burros
And of course, it goes, that since they are crammed in next to one another, disease can spread quickly so they are fed antibiotics. And they are infested with sea lice, 30,000 times more than normal!
Then they get out of their pens and wreak havoc on our delicate ecosystem. These farmed fish consume more of our natural resources and infest other salmon with sea lice and other diseases.
We've heard this story all too often. Farm-Raised fish is bad for our planet, our bodies and our future. Make a powerful statement and refuse to eat or purchase farm-raised fish

Answer 7

I prefer tilapia... this fish has supposedly the least amount of mercury in it out of all the fish available.

Answer 8

Salmon and Tilapia are both heart healthy, Tilapia has less calories than Salmon but I think that Salmon has more minerals than Tilapia.

Answer 9

Salmon is a good choice. It is high in essential omega-3 and helps to prevent diseases such as cancer, heart disease, depression,rheumatoid arthritis, Alzheimer's, diabetes, and more.

Answer 10

Salmon and Tuna.

Answer 11

any fish that is high in omega 3.
