    Default Healthiest Fish

    I know that fish is generally healthy to eat, but I know that mercury is bad, so what is the healthiest fish you can eat? High protein and low mercury....

    Try the snapper. Very exciting eating. No ill effects, so far.

    Gus, that was sarcasam. Most folks do there own homework, and not belive eveything they read on the internet.

    And unless your preggo or eating like 2 pounds a week, it doesnt really pose a signifigat health risk to otherwise healthy people.

    I always laugh when I read label at the market, "been know to cause Cancer in the state of California", why there and now where else. And if its so badm why are the sill selling it in the market.

    Try gotmercury.org, it's a pretty informative website. Now is it run by people that run fish farms? Who knows, but it has a lot of good info. on most species, especially if you have little ones at home. The weight/fish ratio calculator is nice.
