I thought I had asked about this a long time ago but couldn't remember any answers clearly and couldn't find it in search. In Australia there is farmed Atlantic salmon or you can go into some supermarkets and get canned red wild Alaskan salmon. Which is the better choice? Thanks.

"Pacific sockeye salmon are among the most highly prized of the wild salmon species (for their rich red color and firm texture), however attempts to farm them have not been commercially successful. Sockeye have a unique diet and lifecycle that are not easily replicated in an aquaculture environment, though you can bet that somewhere, someone's working on it!"]]> Laura GENERAL HEALTH FORUM Tue, 26 Apr 2011 12:49:17 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?10,125903,125910#msg-125910 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?10,125903,125910#msg-125910 Sodium 250mg Ingredients: Pink Salmon and Salt.

Some canned fish is fairly "pure" and some is salty as Heck! BTW, I think the saltier version tastes better, but I try to avoid it anyway :-(

If you live in the U.S. (can't speak for other countries), frozen salmon and other fish (wild-caught) is widely available. It is much less likely to have the salt issue.

And i was crying about 2.39 a can 14oz salmon


Sardines, a tiny, sleek and silvery canned fish, are one of the few foods that contain Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), a nutrient found the body's cells. In a nutshell, it's believed to have antioxidant properties and is
said to enhance physical energy. Studies have also found that CoQ10 benefits those with cardiovascular diseases, particularly hypertension and congestive heart failure. In addition to CoQ10, these little nutritional powerhouses are also ample sources of vitamin B12, selenium, omega-3 oils, protein, phosphorus and vitamin D]]> Todd GENERAL HEALTH FORUM Sun, 24 Apr 2011 13:59:28 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?10,125903,125907#msg-125907 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?10,125903,125907#msg-125907
Whatever species they are though they are delicious.]]> Rob Law GENERAL HEALTH FORUM Sun, 24 Apr 2011 10:22:41 +0000 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?10,125903,125906#msg-125906 https://www.afibbers.org/forum/read.php?10,125903,125906#msg-125906
Sardines are not typically farm raised. They are very small and very low on the food chain so don't live long enough to accumulate the toxic burdens of mercury, dioxins, PCBs etc that the larger, old fish do. If you look for the sardines that are 'cross-packed' meaning they are layered crosswise in the cans because they are so tiny, you'll be getting the best possible. I'm particular fond of the Norwegian cross-pack sardines. Choose those labeled with the lowest sodium content.

which raises the question, what about other canned food, such as sardines.

How much difference is there between these other canned food varieties of fish as compared to the fresh?
