    Here's what happened -- my bank account was overdrawn and my credit rating was ruined.

    Salmon is delicious as well as healthy, but it's a pretty expensive food to make the mainstay of your diet. It might be ecologically sustainable (that's debatable, depending on the source), but probably not economically sustainable, unless you have a lavish food budget.

    Hm. Overstating results; anecdata at best. E.g. the Mayo Clinic stops short of endorsing fish oil. They just say it has fatty acids, and probably won't hurt you too much. They actually recommend just eating fish.

    >Eating salmon every day might sound excessive, but it turned out to be the all-in-one diet supplement one health reporter needed.

    I would eat lox every day if I could, but then it would be accompanied by a bagel and cream cheese.
