I have been unable to find any information on what the Norwegian farmed salmon is fed and how this impacts the levels of healthy oils and nutrition of the salmon. I am guessing farm raised has significantly less omega 3. Also, does the farmed raised salmon have more or less heavy metal content? I’m a pescatarian and might consider eating Norwegian farm raised if I knew how the farming process impacts nutrition and if it had lower levels of heavy metals. The secrecy behind what they are fed is a major red flag for me.

I enjoy fresh Norwegian salmon from our local supermarket here in the eastern US. My question is, what is fresh farmed Norwegian salmon season? Which months of the year can I expect to find fresh farmed Norwegian salmon in my local supermarket?
Thank you.

Does Norway export wild-caught salmon to the U.S? I have seen packages marked “Wild Norwegian Salmon,” and I am skeptical.

Thank you.

I regularly eat Norwegian salmon , two times a week ( two fillets ) , each fillet is about 350 g. , That’s equal to 700 g of salmon a week. I’m a bit concerned about the fat content of the farmed salmon as it contains a significant amount of saturated fat and omega 6 fatty acids . Could you please advise me on the optimal amount of farmed salmon to eat weekly to avoid unnecessary excess fat and to gain optimal health .
