Researchers have developed a lighted jellyfish lure and camerasystem that will allow them to view life in the deep sea withoutthe disturbances of light and sounds common with other researchmethods.

Traditional research methods often disturb the sea creatures’natural habitat with lights, motors and electric fields. Thenew system, called "Eye in the Sea," can detectanimals when they give off bioluminescent light and recordtheir actions without the animal noticing.

Researchers hope the device will allow a more complete pictureof life in the deep sea.

Dr. Mercola's Comments:

The oceans are home to many extraordinary creatures, manyof which have yet to be discovered.

Fish would be one of the healthiest meats on the planet,but sadly I advise against eating fish from any source, includingfresh water, farm-raised or ocean, because most are contaminatedwith mercury. If you do consume fish, you should be certainthe provider can demonstrate that the fish are free of detectablelevels of mercury and other toxins.

Fortunately, you do have viable options for obtainingthe nutritious benefits of fish, such as regularly consuminghigh-quality purified krill oil.

Additionally, early last year we did extensive testingon fish from a company that takes the salmon from the interiorof Alaska and were surprised and delighted to find that themercury levels were virtually undetectable.

If you enjoy the delicious taste and immense health benefitsof some of the world's finest salmon--Alaskan wild red--butyou are concerned about the mercury now found in dangerousamounts in almost all fish, then please consider trying theAlaskan wild red salmon from VitalChoice that tested safe and that I now carry.
