Any fish that is farmed has higher PCBs. Keep that in mind and try to go for

deep sea wild fish.

I go to the fish store and when wild salmon is in season I get some. If you

have a freezer you could stock up...my freezer is really small and I have

other things that I store as well. The salmon I guy is about $9.99-$12.00 a lbs

and it's delicious!

The fish store near here has organic farmed salmon. They insist that the

fish are fed well and not given anything objectionable..and that they live right

in the ocean in containment, not in vats. I don't know about the PCB.s tho.

I must have been dreaming when I thought I saw a link to an internet

site that allowed me to have salmon mail-ordered to me, including

shipping for nearly the same price as what I can buy wild salmon for

around here when it's on sale. I can't find any such site now. I

think maybe the best I can do is $21.00 a pound including shipping,

for Sockeye or Coho, and it has to be at least a 3-pound order.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks!

I buy mine at COSTCO. I grow most of my own meat and vegetable now and I do

believe that I would be much healthier now if I had eaten organic fruit and

vegetables and grass fed meat all of my life. There is considerable evidence

that grass fed beef is high in omega-3 fatty acids.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

http://www.eatwild.com/healthbenefits.htm

" Omega-3s are most abundant in seafood and certain nuts and seeds such as

flaxseeds and walnuts, but they are also found in animals raised on pasture. The

reason is simple. Omega-3s are formed in the chloroplasts of green leaves and

algae. Sixty percent of the fatty acids in grass are omega-3s. When cattle are

taken off omega-3 rich grass and shipped to a feedlot to be fattened on omega-3

poor grain, they begin losing their store of this beneficial fat. Each day that

an animal spends in the feedlot, its supply of omega-3s is diminished. "

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Grass fed beef is available from many small farmers at a lower cost than you

will find it at a health food store. You will have to search for it. Sharing a

purchase with friends or family will bring your cost down. It is not real easy

to sell USDA certified meat and the huge corporate farms are making it harder

and harder for the little guy.

Cheaper Salmon and Seafood via mail order

I seem to remember that someone on a board I was on had given me

a link to a place where you can buy wild salmon much more cheaply than

on Dr. Mercola's site. Does anyone know of such a site, please?

Thank you kindly.

Farmed fish are fed some really scary stuff. The conditions that they are grown

in are not good either. I will not buy or eat farm grown fish.

Thanks.

Yes, the fish store near me also occasionally has wild salmon on

sale, but I cannot buy a whole lot of it, because even if wrapped

very, very well, it does, after 3-4 months, begin tasting " fishy. " So

I cannot buy a whole lot at one time.

I was hoping someone could steer me to a mail order house that has

decently-priced wild salmon.

The nearest Costco to me is in Chicago, about 3.5 hours away.
