While cod may be an easy choice to put together a fish meal, fish in China are reared under horrible conditions. The cod is thrown into small areas teeming with thousands of fish. Not only are these areas cramped and dirty, but they are also filled with sewage and garbage.
In short, the cod are reared in highly toxic conditions. When you eat the fish, you let some of this toxicity enter your body. Take our advice: Stay away from cod imported from China.
