Fish, is it nutritious or poisonous for human consumption? That is the big question today, but no simple answer to be found. I just ran across information stating how healthy fish is to eat.
- excellent source of low fat protein
- reduce risk of heart disease, diabetes and other chronic illnesses
Then it goes on to say how harmful eating fish can be to your health.
- mercury
- PCBs
- harmful to fetuses and developing children
This is scary, they go on to say that you cannot see, smell, or taste the mercury or PCBs in your fish. Any fish bought at the store or caught on your last fishing trip could contain these contaminants.
