Though fish sounds like one of the most nutritious and healthiest foods possible in the planet, farmed salmon is one of the cancer causing foods you should avoid.
It is estimated that more than 60 percent of the salmon in the USA is farm raised. Those fish are fed with unnatural diets and are contaminated with antibiotics, chemicals, pesticides, and other known carcinogens.
The fish live in crowded conditions, resulting in these fish having up to 30 times the number of sea lice than the wild salmon.
Studies have shown that the farmed salmon include high levels of mercury, PCB’s and cancer causing dioxins. You should avoid farmed salmon and purchase it canned or look for the labels in the market which state that the fish is wild sockeye salmon.
