Why is wild caught Alaska salmon so fantastic?

Because Alaska is fish country and salmon is probably the world’s most heart healthy source of protein.  Wild caught salmon swim naturally and grow freely in the pristine icy clear waters off Alaska’s rugged coastline.  They feed on their natural diet of marine organisms, giving them a superior flavor and texture that is prized by the whole world.  Effective state and federal regulations manage fisheries that are productive and sustainable, clean and healthy.  Alaska is the only State in the nation whose Constitution explicitly mandates that all fish, including salmon, shall be utilized, developed and maintained on the sustainable yield principle.  Alaska’s waters are the cleanest in the world and has strict regulations governing development activities.  Clean marine habitats produce pure seafood products.

Wild salmon is rich in long-chain Omega-3 essential fatty acids – the most beneficial kind – which studies show to protect heart health, inhibit inflammation in joints, decrease body fat, stabilizes blood sugar levels, acts as a natural anti-depressent, increases feelings of well being, and…the part I love…keeps the skin young, supple, radiant and wrinkle free.  The Omega-3s provide nourishment to hair follicles helping hair grow healthy and the high protein content of salmon helps to maintain strong, healthy hair and nails.  More on that at a later date.  Salmon is low in calories and is one of the healthiest fish available for consumption.  Some of the health benefits are just now being discovered on the leading edge of science and nutrition.
