Really interesting about Japan I did't now that. But what about Alaska and the eskimo's they also eat a bit more fish/seafood I pressume.
What about sushi at a high end establishment in Japan?

I enjoy eating sushi, especially nigiri. I think I can eat it every day without getting bored from it. But since the fish is uncooked, I worry about contamination, pathogens and gut infections. Do you think it’s safe to eat sushi, microbial-wise?
I have a friend who follows the paleo lifestyle. She used to eat a lot of sushi and got parasites. Later on she spent months in a hospital and is still not well.I love sushi! But Peat's opinion finally swayed me so I do not eat raw seafood anymore. Ray Peat says you can get Hepatitis from it and definitely parasites are an issue. Also there was a case recently where someone died from a flesh eating disease they got from eating raw oysters. I have just decided it is not worth the risk.
I think the risks are lowered if people properly handle the fish but I think that is pretty rare. I think the rule is that all sushi fish has to be frozen for 2 weeks to kill parasites and I just don't trust that people know that or practice it. It is sad because I love raw tuna and crave it so bad sometimes.
I do still eat cooked sushi.
Bummer because it's soooo good.
