Farmed Salmon = Most Toxic Food in the World

Mercola is kind of a shock jock, is on Dr. Oz quite often, but.....

Story at-a-glance
Aquaculture promotes itself as a sustainable solution to overfishing, but it actually takes 1.5 to 8 kilograms (3.3 to 17.6 pounds) of wild fish to produce a single kilogram (2.2 pounds) of farmed salmon

Fish farms pollute the aquatic environment and spread disease to wild fish. Farmed fish are also an inferior food source, in part by providing fewer healthy nutrients; in part by containing more toxins

Research shows farmed salmon contain five times more toxins than any other food tested, including higher levels of PCBs and dioxin

Recent research warns farmed Atlantic salmon may contain PBDEs, toxic flame retardant chemicals that have been restricted or banned in the U.S. and many European countries due to their effects on child development

Toxins in the fish feed and environmental concentrations of the chemicals have been identified as the two primary culprits
