Heirloom vegetables grow more slowly and spoil much more quickly than modern crops. This is because modern crops have less nutritional value - https://jeroenvanbaar.substack.com/p/data-dispatch-4-the-falling-nutritional
That article recommends eating a better diet. Sure. Seems a bit idealist. Here’s some more actionable advice: everyone should take a multivitamin and magnesium glycinate. If you live somewhere that gets a winter take vitamin D too.
I’m speaking from experience here, I used to get sick every winter and my skin would get so dry it would crack and bleed. Take your vitamins.
you’re thinking of anchovies, I think. There’s less than a gram of salt in the 100g sardines sitting in front of me rn
again, from the sardines on my desk: 17,3g of fat per 100g; only 3,5g of those are saturated. Idk if that’s high to you, but it doesn’t seem to be to me
like all canned foods, yea. High, also is relative here, though I can’t really find reliable numbers rn. If you know more, please share
not really, I think you’re thinking of tuna? Sardines are a very small fish near the bottom of the food network, feeding on krill - there isn’t really much bio-accumulation going on here, compared to bigger fish. There’s some mercury in them for sure, but you’d have to eat a lot of sardines to get to dangerous levels
This post has been paid for by the North Atlantic Fishery Council, I hope you have enjoyed this social media content and will consider consuming 100 - 400g of canned sardines per day.
Also just wanna say, it’s not very nice of you to be calling me an idiot when I even went out of my way to provide a CW for vegan sensibilities. I did find your post in response pretty funny though. Also also, I am eating those beans as well, don’t you worry.
You keep sardines at your desk?
Your coworkers/roommates must love you.
Yes, they do.
(Desk meaning the table my surfing machine rests on. I have never consumed canned fish at the workplace. The NAFC stands for and promotes a responsible use of canned fish.)
It’s ok, go ahead and eat all that shit and deny it’s bad for you because worse food has more of it. There’s literally no other option. Except you know, plants
The hand waving of mercury in sardines is really bad, they don’t not have mercury because tuna has more you silly Billy, and tiny amount of mercury are toxic and cause negative effects but go off king!!!
