Fish are regularly contaminated with PCBs and other pollutants, with bioaccumulation and biomagnification providing significant doses; this includes heavy metals.
Or you could skip the downsides and get those nuts and seeds and other plants with omega-3 fatty acids… or just algae based supplements (algae are the origin of the nutrient for those fish).
Nuts and seeds have way too many Omega 6 fatty acids, wich counteract Omega 3 and can cause heart problems
A vegan keto diet is hardly possible because of that
Omega 3 (ALA, a predecessor of EPA and DHA which you also need) comes from few plants in high concentrations: flax (linseed), hemp, chia
Additionally, microalgae oil for direct EPA and DHA can help, as the transformation of ALA in the body only fulfills the basic needs
A vegan diet needs a bunch of essential supplements, which you can take in a single pill like these a day as they are small. Others like iron, protein, B-Vitamins come with a diet rich in legumes and full grains.

So it’s a tradeoff: Fish consumption, methylmercury and child neurodevelopment - PMC

They don’t do it. It’s like I’m talking to a bot.
What? That was just an example. Nuts are not that healthy as a main part of the diet

Start subsidizing growing nuts and seeds at the same level as the subsidies for the fishing sector, and let’s compare prices then.
