Why should you not eat tilapia?
Tilapia is loaded with omega-6 fatty acids, which we already eat too much of in our modern society. Excess omega-6 can cause and exacerbate inflammation so much that it makes bacon look heart-healthy. Inflammation can lead to heart disease and also exacerbate symptoms for people suffering from asthma and arthritis.
Is tilapia heart-healthy?
Tilapia contains the essential fatty acids omega-3 and omega-6. Omega-3 fatty acids contribute to heart health, vision, and joint strength. Omega-6 fatty acids can be less beneficial to health if people consume them in excess, as they may cause or worsen inflammation.
Which tilapia is best to eat?
If you’re looking for the best choice, we recommend Regal Springs Tilapia. Their fish raised in pristine lakes and are fed a vegetable-based floating feed to ensure supreme quality. While the type of Tilapia you’re eating may not matter to you, the way it’s raised should.
