    Eat salmon as often as you like, so long as it is wild caught Alaskan salmon. Other forms are not healthy or sustainable to consume on a regular basis.

    I'm having salmon filets with fresh mango salsa for dinner tonight. I try to eat it at least once a week and mix in other kinds of fish 2-3 times a week.

    IIFYM is useful is many many cases. I use this rule myself.

    The only concern I'd have with eating fish multiple times every day, is mercury. Levels of mercury can build up in you, and hurt you later.

    Be careful :happy: :flowerforyou:

    This would be my only concern. Probably 3 times a week is a good rule of thumb. Very high in Omega 3 fatty acids so that's a great thing! Also, I echo the the Wild Caught sentiment. Farm raised is a poor sustitute both nutritionally and flavor wise.
