So, how often is it safe? Three times a week, tops. That’s your sweet spot. You get the heart benefits, the glowing skin, and the feeling of being a superior human for eating something so smart. But you avoid the fishy aura and the potential toxin build-up.
Think of it like dating salmon. You want to see it regularly enough to keep the romance alive, but not so often that you get sick of its personality. Monday, Wednesday, and Friday is a solid relationship. Saturday? That’s tinfoil day for the leftovers. Don’t be the person who calls salmon four times a day. That’s just weird.
If you find yourself craving salmon every single meal, just remember my bait-shop story. Eat a taco. Eat some eggs. Let the salmon miss you a little. It’ll taste even better when you come back to it, and your body will be genuinely happy to see it again.
