Too much fish?

Is there anything I should worry about if I'm getting 95% of my daily fat intake strictly from salmon?

I don’t understand what the hell your deal is. Every time I ask a question you have to chime in with some smartass answer. I was asking because unlike some people I don’t think I know everything, and we can always learn something from someone else. I asked because maybe somebody has read something about it that could help me. From now on, when I ask a question or you feel the need to say anything to me just keep your opinion to yourself. Or better yet, go to bb.com where people like you hang out and ***** each other out. I don’t need your negative attitude so just stay the hell out of my business.

The simple answer to your queary is no. Variety is always good though. I would try to include some saturated fats as they have a positive influence on test levels.

I'd agree that variety is best not only for your body but for your sanity.

possibly could be a problem regarding the large quantities of vitamin D in fish oil. It's not water soluble, so it can buld to unhealthy levels. If yoiu're just eating a lot of fish, though, you are probably fine. Large amounts of supplemental fish oil would be more of a concern. Other than that would be the unhealthy mercury levels in some fish like swordfish and (I think) mackerel. Even so, I don't really think I can get enough fish, and I worry very little about it considering other things I ingest.

Though I know salmon contains just about the lowest amount of mercury I wouldn't get THAT much fat intake from it (farm raised usually have higher of both PCBs and mercury). Throw some olive oil in your protein shakes, eat some avocados, spread some butter on your toast (Real butter is great in decent amounts), if not butter try coconut oil, ground flax seed in your cereal is good.

Good suggestion, add some coconut oil! People need more saturated fats!! Salmon does contain high meythylmercury levels (unless farm grown) all "bigger" fish do. This is only avoidable with small fish like sardines. Also safflower and rice bran oil raise HDL so that's always good too.

Steven, it's none of my biz, but I sure wish you and T-bone would start to be nice to one another again. You should really know better than to engage him like that, you know the Truth.

Like I said, I don't understand what his deal is. He started it with my first post where I asked some questions and he's made unnecessary comments since then. I'm not a hostile person and didn't want to say anything. I'd much rather know what his deal is. Although Dr. D, I don't quite understand what you mean by "You should really know better than to engage him like that, you know the Truth." I don't know him at all, and what do you mean by 'the Truth'?
Thanks for the answers though guys. I mainly asked because of a post at Avant. By the way, Loki started a thread under Feedback about lecithin, praising it. What do you guys think? I ordered some from www.bulkfoods.com (97% phospholipids).

I take 6g's of lecithin a day for the record. Good stuff for liver, nerves and blood vessels.

A fool shows his annoyance immediately, but a wise man overlooks many insults. That's a quote from Proverbs. If you are truely crowned, you know the Truth. Don't get me wrong, I have a temper. I got silly with a few jerks (not around here anymore) but I was wrong to do it and should have co
