Now, increased demand for traditional fishmeal – which is made from small species caught in the open ocean – has sent the industry scrambling for alternatives.
The stuff being used to make fish feed is a byproduct of the poultry industry – it’s what is left over after the parts of the chicken consumed by humans and the remains used for cat and dog food have been removed.
I agree eating meat can have good affect on people’s health. I don’t agree it’s a simple ‘eating meat is always better’ deal. I personally know people who have trouble with animal protein. Also let’s not forget the deleterious effects of eating red meat.
I’m not trying to be ‘but what about the bad effects too!’ person. I agree that eating meat can be good for you. I just also think that a whole nation of people eating vegetarian meals all their lives goes to show that it is possible and normal. I also think that a lot of people in that nation would benefit from eating meat, as you pointed out.
It’s not a question of nutrition.
