Prolong exposure to harmful toxins such as pesticides are one of the major leading causes of cancer. We are exposed to pesticides more often than we think. Some of the food that we eat contains harmful level of pesticides and toxins. Thus it is important for us consider doing detoxification to help expel some of the harmful pollutants from our body.
Cancer pollutants
For instance, farm bred salmon contains endocrine disrupting cancer causing pollutants called PCB. Some salmon breeders feed the fishes with pellet meals containing cancer-causing pollutants, term PCB. Most of the salmon that we get either from the supermarket or the meals we take from restaurants are farm bred salmon. Wild salmons are usually more expensive and contain fewer toxins.
Artificial coloring
Farm salmon are usually gray in color due to the food that was fed to it such as corn meals instead of its natural diet. Farm salmon are also sometimes treated with artificial coloring to make it look pink in color. Prolong exposure and intake of artificial coloring is bad for our health.
Inflammation due to excessive Omega 6
Farmed salmon contains up to four or more times the contents of Omega 6s compare to its wild salmon counterpart. This is part and parcel due to the type of food which farm salmons are given. Excessive Omega 6 intakes that consist of fatty acids could leads to a variety of disease such as heart attacks, osteoporosis, mood disorder and even cancer.
Harmful antibiotics
Farm salmons are given antibiotics treatment to prevent air borne water diseases such as parasites infections from spreading within congested and close quarters. Some of these antibiotics are harmful to human and have long-term serious consequences.
