hello..
is sashimi good for bodybuilders? or for those on a diet to lose weight?

I get all kinds of info from friends, some say that the japanese rice is not good and is fattening
while others say that the raw fish is good for protein

raw fish is good source of protein. i wish i could have sashimi for lunch. yea, a whole chunk of shashimi. it could be better if it's salmon from cold water..

actually sashimi is expensive
so normally it would be typical for a meal to have sashimi and japanese rice to be filling

and besides that most japanese restaurants keep raw fish frozen. Thus eliminating nutrients

I see. So freezing food would eliminate protein. You think too much. Fish = good.

If you eat, like, 3 kilos' worth of Japanese rice, or any rice for that matter, of course you're gonna get fat.

MODERATION!

Sashimi rocks and salmon sashimi = Awesome.

fraid there's tapeworms egg in it

Actually, the better restaurants keep the raw fish chilled not frozen. But of course chilled fish must be consumed quickly since they can't keep fresh as long as frozen fish.

Also, freezing helps eliminate some of the parasites which may be present within the fish. And if your fish gets too old to sell at your restaurant, you can probably just send it off to Sakae Sushi or something. Eurgh.

Sashimi, especially Tuna sushi, is really good for snacks.
In Melbourne, you can get them for A$2, and they come in big size, not like the convention Japanese sushi.

I always have them for brunch, tea, and supper. In between snacks.
They are really good especially when it comes to hungry stomach especially when you don't want have a large meal.

i remember once i stuff myself overload at shogun with salmon and i skip dinner bcoz i couldnt digest them in time for dinner hahahaha

it's good but expensive (:

The primary reason for eating fish is to get Omega 3. Yes, sashimi is very nice but kinda expensive way to get Omega 3 (for daily nutrition). More cost effective to buy fish oil capsules.
