In the ocean, pink salmon feed on plankton, other smaller fish, squid, and the occasional aquatic insect. The tiny marine crustaceans pink salmon eat are what give their flesh its pink color. As with all members of the salmon family, when they return to freshwater to spawn, they stop eating.
Salmon is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which help reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke and may reduce coronary artery disease and help lower blood pressure. MayoClinic.com recommends eating salmon or other omega-rich fish twice weekly. Although seafood is often contaminated, salmon is a low-mercury choice. Therefore, Consumer Reports deems it safe to eat salmon every day -- unlike swordfish and fresh tuna, which have dangerous mercury levels.
