Where does the fish we eat come from?
The consumption of fish is generally very popular for those who are following a diet, for those who follow a complete and genuine diet and for those who cannot do without it. It is on the genuine and on the authenticity that we want to dwell. The large consumption of fish leads us to often divert attention to the origin , yes, not all fish are the same and not all fish come from the same guaranteed place!
In reality, the fish we eat is the result of farms . The routine of farmed fish and the food it ingests have nothing to do with a fish that lives free in the sea. The properties we adore about fish, omega 3 , are assimilated by fish through meals based on other fish, plankton and algae.
Any fish fed in any other way will destroy personal nutritional value and it will be useless for us to include it in our meals. A farmed fish will not provide our body with any benefit . Many of the fish on the market today come from farms and unfortunately, as a rule, we sometimes fall into the temptation to buy it because it would cost us a bingo as fresh fish .
How to read the fish label
Always reading the labels and making it a habit can only help us. Whenever we find written bred in we know that the fish we are going to buy is better to put it on the counter. When, on the other hand, we find the catch written with the place of reference where it was caught, we can be sure that it is sea fish. In fact, we are sure that it is sea fish , but which sea?
The situation of the seas only gets worse and the pollution is rampant, that’s why eating whole fish of all its peculiarities is increasingly difficult. The seas are full of heavy metals that threaten the organisms of fish and come to us who ingest them and who often risk incurring high health risks.
The best thing to do is to choose caught fish and always prefer small fish such as mackerel, sardines, anchovies, red mullets. The FAO area is normally always present on the fish labels.
