Vital Choice
- A year or so ago, understanding the
benefits of omega 3s but scare of mercury in fish, I went searching for safe fish that
would provide the most punch for omega 3s. Local markets only
carried farm-raised fish. Since I knew
this was not the best option
for my health or the environment, I went searching online for a source
for Wild Alaskan Salmon. I came across a distributor who would sell me
like 100 pounds, which was far more than I needed. That person guided
me to Vital Choice. Long before they had this nifty new web site and
before other doctor's started recommending this source, I am proud to say
that I found them and felt confident eating their fish. It's
delicious, nutritious, safe, and very important to our health. It's
the right thing to do to protect our environment and the fish too. It use to be that salmon was the LAST thing I would ever think to eat because I just didn't like it. When I read the benefits, I decided it was worth the effort. The salmon from Vital Choice is superb and the recipes they send you, as well as some that I'll post soon, will make a salmon lover out of you too. Even my kids (two out of three - not bad) love it. The canned salmon is so delicious as is their nitrate free Nova and Smoked Salmon (and I don't personally like smoked foods as a rule but I really do like theirs) The Wild Alaskan Blueberries are perfect to have on hand for making blueberry pancakes, syrup, and smoothies. Blueberries are rich in antioxidants. Unsurpassed customer service too. Tell him Annie Malka sent you when you go there as they have many sites recommending them now. Best yet, use the link provided above to make your purchase. I get credit for orders that come through me and I'm able to pass along the savings to you in the prices of produce that I offer you, so it all works out well and I'd appreciate that they know I'm supporting their services. Buy this mercury safe and vitally important fish to decrease your risk of cancer too:
“The National Cancer Institute has linked
consumption of red meat-- beef, pork and veal--to an increased risk of
several types of cancer, including breast cancer. One study found that the
risk of breast cancer doubled in postmenopausal women who ate three ounces
of red meat a day as compared with women who ate one ounce or less of red
meat daily. Instead, emphasize fish, especially fatty fish such as
salmon--their omega-3 fatty acids may help prevent breast cancer.”

| Grassland Beef is another good way to get your Omega 3s and is a much healthier option, for many reasons, to grain-fed beef. Grass-fed beef is leaner and does not have nearly as much saturated fat as regular beef. This is a good option, in moderation. | ||

Global Exchange features unique gifts from around the world as well as educational resources about human rights issues. The customer service, quality of foods, information, and selection is very good here and I enjoy shopping here regularly for coffee and chocolate, as well as on occasion for unique gifts and other items, knowing that I am supporting Fair Trade, Fair Wages, and Respect for Workers and Farmers. Simply, it's the right thing to do. |
