Neobliviscaris1776 1,998 Posted June 5, 2021 Report Share Posted June 5, 2021 If anyone is doing that many hours working then any additional supplementation and vitamins would be beneficial. Your body will slow you down if you don't, rest is vital at least getting a power nap during the day, even 10mins can really do wonders. Imo there is eating healthy and eating smart. Healthy is eating foods that are considered good for your health. But unless you are eating the 'right' foods at the 'right' time, especially when you are undergoing physical aswell as mental work, then your not likely to benefit as much. Brain food is what I endeavour to consume everyday, foods that benefit your neurological processes. I don't know what others think but I would say the most important organ is the brain. Oily fish everyday, sardines or mackerel with no exceptions for breakfast along with eggs, butter and a few oatcakes 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You're pretty safe with mackerel and salmon no? My understanding was that it's mainly large predatory blue water fish like swordfish that have concerning concentrations of certain toxic minerals. Which makes sense really from an evolutionary point, we didn't evolve hunting the open oceans. Then again the japs do fine on it. Which just highlights how f***ing complex nutritional science is and how prone it is to folks becoming zealots. Edited June 5, 2021 by Born Hunter 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Neobliviscaris1776 1,998 Posted June 5, 2021 Report Share Posted June 5, 2021 I think there is an element of risk with certain farmed fish or anything that is farmed in general. Tuna yes has a certain exposure to certain mercury but sardines and oily fish that are high in omegas, I wouldn't stop eating no matter what was said. These staples are fundamental to living a healthy life. If you believed everything you heard you wouldn't eat anything apart from fibre all day. But each to their own 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But each to their own Its a fact of life that every action we take has a risk associated. But it doesn't help anyone spreading misstruths. Swordfish is of particular concern but it's wouldn't stoped me ordering it in the restaurant or even killing one for my own freezer if I got the chance. Blue water spearos who target them are on another level! Great stuff. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Neobliviscaris1776 1,998 Posted June 5, 2021 Report Share Posted June 5, 2021 Food production is like any other big business. They will advertise, market and discredit a whole host of certain foods, mainly meat and fish(protein) and try sell you other alternatives in order to boost sales. And if people need ' the science' to convince them, then they'll provide that too. Your average joe sitting at a desk all day or glued to a screen all day will do better on brain foods. A grafters diet is different ball game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Because I've just looked at an fda source which says atlantic mackerel have the same mercury content as whiting and haddock etc. Mercury Levels in Commercial Fish and Shellfish (1990-2012) WWW.FDA.GOV Mercury Levels in Commercial Fish and Shellfish from 1990-2012 by Species Quote Link to post Share on other sites
