tuna or salmon?

[Elite_Fry]

just wondering which one...
everyone always meantion tuna but what about salmon?

 

[IGoRyEk69]

Tuna is a great source of protein with almost no fat, salmon is great also and the fats are healthy

 

[diamonddiceclay]

salmon is listed as a great meal in the metabolic diet book

Salmon has a lot more fat than tuna but it is 'good' in that it is high in Omega 3 oils.

As long as the extra calories don't harm your diet salmon is good. Tastes good too.

Usually salmon if I can get it. Tuna's cheaper, though, and I buy flax seperately, so it's not a must.

salmon over tuna any day.

Canned salmon does taste better than canned tuna IMO.

....although a nice tuna steak is pretty nice

if cost is not an issue....always SALMON....fatty acids, and less mercury......unfortunately cost is an issue
