Scope

What are the current net health effects due to the consumption of salmon in Western Europe (beneficial effects of nutrients in salmon, and harmful effects of pollutants in salmon)?

Definition

Data

The result is directly calculated from the causal knowledge.

Causality

Upstream variables

• Variable:Pollutant health risk due to the consumption of salmon (eff_poll)
• Variable:Cardiovascular effects of omega-3 in salmon in the Western Europe (eff_fish)

Unit

avoided cases/a

Formula

<anacode>Eff_fish+eff_poll</anacode>

Result

Table: Net health impacts of eating farmed salmon. The results include the health impacts of the total health impact of omega-3 intake from salmon.
