What are nutritional up-sides and down-sides of eating fish?

Is there a preferable cooking method ?

Farmed fish or Caught Fish?

Does pollution affect the nutritional value?

to know your opinions on it.

Take a look at it. Personally I eat wild-caught (NEVER
farmed) sardines, salmon, oysters, or whole baby
clams--about twice a week. The problem with farm-
raised fish is that farmers feed the carnivores CORN.
Another problem is pollution from the fish farms and
the crowding of the fish. These enviroments are very
unhealthy for the fish, the planet, and for us. It's the
flip side of the VERY bad idea of feeding cattle--which
are herbivores--corn, a food which the cattle did not
evolve to eat. The meat industry does this because
corn is a VERY cheap way to fatten the cattle quickly.
Grass-fed beef is very expensive and hard to find.
Most cattle are raised for the first six months of their
lives on pastures and then shipped to feedlots where
they are fattened on corn, beef tallow, and hormones.
The diets and enviroments are so unhealthy for them
they must given antibiotics for the rest of their lives--
about eight months.
