Synopsis "Salmon Parasites: Fish, Parasites & the Vegan Alternative: What You Need to Know About Salmon, Sushi, Seafood Parasites and Plant-Based Omega-3s, A book"
Can salmon contain parasites? What about sushi, raw fish, tapeworms, and fish-borne infections? And do you really need fish to get omega-3s? Salmon Parasites: Fish, Parasites & the Vegan Alternative takes a closer look at the science behind seafood parasites and the questions many fish consumers may never think to ask. Inspired in part by the Exam Room Podcast discussion featuring Dr. Neal Barnard, this book explores what happens when parasites enter the marine food chain, why wild fish can carry parasitic organisms, and why raw or inadequately cooked seafood deserves particular attention. Inside, you'll discover: How parasites enter fish through aquatic food webs What salmon parasites are and why they matter Anisakis and the risk associated with raw or inadequately cooked seafood Fish tapeworms and other fish-associated parasites The science behind the reported increase in certain marine parasitic worms What the research says about parasites in wild-caught salmon Sushi, sashimi, raw fish, and parasite risks How proper cooking and appropriate freezing can reduce parasite exposure Why freshness does not necessarily mean parasite-free Fish, mercury, and the food chain Omega-3 nutrition without eating fish Flaxseed, chia seeds, walnuts, and other plant-based sources of ALA Algae-derived DHA and EPA Vegan sushi and plant-based alternatives to fish How a vegan diet can provide protein, fiber, healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals The book also places fish parasites into the larger discussion of parasites associated with animal foods, while separating established evidence from exaggerated claims. Featuring discussion of research highlighted by the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine and information from NutritionFacts.org, this book encourages readers to look beyond headlines and understand the evidence. Whether you eat salmon regularly, enjoy sushi, are concerned about seafood safety, or are exploring a vegan alternative, Salmon Parasites provides an accessible introduction to the questions surrounding fish, parasites, omega-3 nutrition, and plant-based choices. Know the risks. Understand the science. Explore the alternatives.
