  • According to most books/websites I have read say smoked salmon is NOT ok to eat unless it is heated (i.e. cooked in a cassarole or something).
  • My doctor told me to stay away from tuna, but that small amounts of salmon were acceptable when cooked properly.

  • I was told no smoked salmon, unless it is hot and has not been allowed to cool.

  • I was told canned tuna is fine once a week or so.  Smoked salmon is a no, but cooked salmon is fine, again once or twice a week.

  • I have read that all smoked fish is a no no.  Regular cooked salmon is okay in moderation although it does have high levels of mercury like tuna and swordfish.
