who knew this was such a controversial subject! it comes down to the fatty acid mix. tilapia has a lot of omega-3 fatty acids but also omega-6 from what i've read. so like anything else it seems like there is a positive and negative. then when you throw in 'wild' vs. 'farmed ' it gets super complicated. at the end of the day i feel better when i eat fish and there are a lot of other things worse for me out there. so i'm personally sticking with my 2 fish a week rule which might include tilapia.
does talpia have much nutritional value? i've heard only cold water fish have a lot of omega 3s but is it true?
