Farmed salmon are now being fed chicken - and it might actually be better than the status quo (www.thejournal.ie)

Now, increased demand for traditional fishmeal – which is made from small species caught in the open ocean – has sent the industry scrambling for alternatives.

The stuff being used to make fish feed is a byproduct of the poultry industry – it’s what is left over after the parts of the chicken consumed by humans and the remains used for cat and dog food have been removed.

it depends on who really needs it but for most people using plant based supplements and changing a bit of their food habit is more than enough for the health part.
Just reducing meat intake can have very positive effects.

Also Indian food is really nice because its mostly not centered around meat (its more an additional ingredient) and still very tasty and healthy

You can easily see vegetarians because of how unhealthy they look.

And the average person cant afford the amount of supplements and special food to live as long as a vegan.

I'd rather live healthy and enjoy life.

I catch my own fish and clean them myself and my health and numbers are all In great shape.

I also like having muscle and looking good.

I've seen that online and IRL, but to counter, I had a 52-yo vegan gf who ran 5-miles a day, every day, ran marathons when she trained up, closet full of medals. That woman was 5'10" of twisted steel and sex appeal, nothing unhealthy about her.
