In the sea cages the salmon are fed on pellets that are made from other fish. The nutrients in the pellets are more concentrated than in the fish they come from. The cages also make it easier to treat the salmon for parasitic infections, which are more common than in the wild because of the density of fish in the cages..

Salmon get energy from their food, and we get energy when we eat salmon. Energy is lost from an orgasism due to repiration. What do salmon use the energy released in respiration for?

Explain why confining the salmon in cages should help them grow faster?

Two reasons why salmon fed on pellets grow faster than salmon in the wild?

In terms of energy loss, explain why treating caged salmon for infections helps them grow faster?

ANY HELP D;

I think I have problems digesting foods like chicken, beef, cheese, and bread. I’m looking into a diet that is easy to digest, but I can still get all the nutrients I need. I hate feeling too full to be active. What foods are easy to digest, yet contain enough protein to live heathily?

Suppose you eat a food that, according to its nutrient content declaration, provides X grams of protein, etc, etc, and Y calories of energy. When you eat that food, the energy in the X grams of protein is included in Y, right? But what if your body uses the protein for building material and not for energy? Then do you still get Y calories of energy? I mean, the same protein molecules can’t be used for both energy AND building material, can they? But, on the other hand, if Y _doesn’t_ include the energy that’s in the protein, Y must be false in another situation – namely when your body uses the protein for energy! Or am I missing something? (For now, let’s ignore the fact that any nutrient info is inexact in other ways anyway, and that each body will take up different amounts of the nutrients in any food depending on various circumstances.)

i’m exercizing at a mild intensity, about 40 min 3 to 4 times a week (yeah, i should probably increase that) am eating quite healthy:
i cut oil from cooking, lots of veggies, salads, fish, fiber, yogurt..
buuuut..I think that despite this being healthy, am eating way too much of it..
like i’ll eat salad until am super full or eat lots of veggies (broccoli and green beans) but then have like 1.5 cups of whole wheat pasta..

so am happy because im not eating the junk i usually eat and am actually getting some nutrients…but then again, can i expect to even lose weight at this rate?

ok i dont trust commercial cat food at all.
nobody regulates it really.

its complete garbage.

i want to start my cat on the raw food diet, but all the research i do i dont understand it all sounds like "blah blah blah" with alot of words i cant define.

so is there like a "raw food diet for dummies?"
and where can i find the supplements for thet cats at?
and what the heck is a grinder?

im dumb, i need i explained to me like you would have to explain it to a 4 year old.

and were can i find really fast recipes?
do you realize thats what they would eat in the wild?

you feed your cat crap!
it will probably end up with a liver damage

so you know how much ash and fillers are in cat food, do your research.
the cat food companys slide buy with the minimal nutrients in it.
Also please dont awsner my question if you have no idea of the benifits of the raw food diet.

this is manly for people who are feeding there cats that.

So please refrain from anwsering my question if you are not educated in this topic

I have a tiger shovelnose catfish. Is he at risk for malnutrition eating only live stream minnows? (not Goldfish). Is Hole in head disease possible with this diet? If so, how do I get him the right nutrients if he only eats live food?

My 8 month old boston terrier mix has an extremely sensitive stomach and I dont know what to do anymore!
We have tried 4 different types of food and none seem to help him.
First was Orijen which was the worst because of how high in protein it was, he had blood in his stool and wouldnt eat it eventually. And yes we have had multiple stool samples done and all came back negative.
Then we tried Wellness which we kept him on for about 3 months….but he always had loose stool and sometimes extremely liquidy!
We were told to change his main protein in his diet so we switch to performance choice lamb and rice. He was on this for about a month or more and he was even worse then when we was on wellness…it was always super loose and watery. I did some research and found California Natural which is supposed to be for sensitive stomachs and allergies. It seemed to get even worse….he was going RIGHT after he ate like it just went right through him and it was all liquidy and green sometimes. I always do the transition very slow especially because of his stomach but that doesnt seem to make a difference.
The only thing that seems to be good for him is when I make him rice and chicken to settle his stomachs when it gets really bad…but I know that it doesnt have enough vitamins and nutrients in it to feed him all the time.
I feel really bad changing his food so much and Im sure that doesnt help his stomach either but its getting out of hand and I just dont know what to do anymore. We have even had the vet give us pills to make his stool solid and those barely help!
I have gotten to the point where I think a home made diet will be the only thing that will be good for him but I dont have the time to make something super complicated for him everyday.
If anyone has any ideas what to do, or a simple homemade diet that still gives him everything he needs please help me!
He’s lively and has tons of energy so hes not sick or anything but I dont want him to have a upset stomach anymore :(
Thank you

I’ve done a lot of research about the raw food diet for dogs and I see no reason not to do it. Most kibble is processed with preservatives, artificial coloring/flavoring, animal "meal" which is not meat by the way, fillers like corn and soy, heat baked which takes out most nutrients- and so on and if its the higher end kibbles yea they’re healthier but how are they healthier than a balanced raw diet?…Yea there are certain things that you cannot feed your dog with this diet but all it take is a little research into it to discover whats good and bad…I dont get it. What do you think? And to set the record straight-chicken bones are FINE for dogs as long as they are RAW- not cooked in any way..
lol I’m talking about kibble vs. raw meat/veggies diet
chicken bones do not splinter when raw..

Hello. I am very interested in taking up a raw food diet / lifestyle because of all of the health benefits. However, I am unsure of exactly what to eat for breakfast/lunch/dinner/snack in order to get the sufficiant amount of nutrients and calories. There has to be raw food dieters out there on Yahoo Answers. If so, can you give me a sample menu with stuff that I can find at a local grocery store on the east coast. Thanks a million,

i go on a 100% raw diet every now and again to get more nutrients. lately i have gained 10 kg via emotional bingeing. i hear that eating a raw food diet will lead to quick weight loss, but for me its a hard lifestyle to maintain for life. is there a way i can eat cooked food and maintain any weight loss i achieve through raw foodism (if i of course watch my calorie intake)? or is there more to it? thx
im not asking about weight loss. im asking about weight MAINTENANCE on a more cooked-food diet after eating all raw to lose the weight. thx

I’m transitioning over to raw foodism and when I told my best friend, she kept telling me how I should not eat just vegetables and fruits and that I should eat other things too. she doesn’t understand that you can get all the nutrients and vitamins your body needs without eating processed foods. also, I know my family is going to have an issue with this, how could I explain this to them? I’m very excited about the short term and long term health benefits I will be getting by cutting out dairy and processed foods from my diet (I’ve been vegetarian for three years now).

first off, I’m already a vegetarian. I’ve been a vegetarian for three years now, going back and forth to veganism. I’ve been studying about raw foodism for a while now, so I know about how I can get my nutrients…which doesn’t have to come from processed foods and animal products. raw foodism can be the healthiest diet if you eat the right fruits and vegetables. anyways, this is my plan:
week one: each of my meals and snack will consist of fruits and/or vegetables (cooked or raw)
week two: each of my meals and snacks will consist ONLY of fruits and vegetables (cooked or raw)
week three: at least two meals a day has to be all fresh fruits and/or vegetables (as well as snacks)
week four: at least two meals a day has to be all fresh fruits and/or vegetables (as well as snacks)
after week four everything will be raw fruits and vegetables.

I started my dog on the raw food diet, since I live in a very small town, I don’t have to many choices on where to get the meat. Anyways, I’m hoping that if I stock up on meat on sale, and keep it in the freezer, would all the nutrients/vitamins still be in the meat when I defrost it?(Not in the microwave, I mean naturally) And how long does meat usually last in the freezer?

I’m not much of a meat eater, so i don’t know too much about meat.

Thanks for your help!
