INTRODUCTION
Americans have started putting a lot of thought into the foods they consume in the last decade. Not only are people concerned with ensuring they consume nutritious foods to give their bodies plenty of nutrients, but they are also involved in ensuring they eat foods that are not full of preservatives or additives. People are searching for ways to consume less processed foods that are more sustainable for the whole world. These trends have recently led many Americans to become vegetarians or even vegans, all of which are good options. However, some people have discovered that when they exclude all animal protein from their diets, they do not get enough protein in their diets and live healthily through a well-balanced pescatarian diet.
Instead of losing all animal protein, more people are transitioning to diets like fish. That's because fish produce a lot of nutritious protein, are low in fat, have healthy fats, and are renewable resources. In Alaska, for example, fishers help conserve the shellfish population by harvesting only prime males that meet minimum size requirements. Fishers may thus be sure that they do not harvest fish that are still growing and do not harvest the female fish to keep the shellfish population safe through reproduction. Consumers will consume the prime males without having to worry about destroying the fish population in Alaska.
Recent books like The Omnivore's Dilemma and movies like Food Inc. have increased American awareness of food industry activities and the foods Americans consume. Unfortunately, the fishing industry has gained much less publicity than the meat industry. They can eat a healthy amount of fish without damaging the ecosystem.
Americans should enjoy a balanced pescatarian diet instead of going all the way to the extreme of being vegetarian or vegan to get the nutritious value they need without affecting the environment in the same way as a diet full of beef, pork, or chicken does.
