They can be but are not always. Fish are flash frozen for freshness first.

However humans can't live on fish alone for 3 months without serious health effects. Hopefully he gets that looked into.

I think you're thinking of rabbits. Rapid meat is too lean for humans to survive off of it, there isn't enough fat in it. Fish does not have that problem they have high levels of omega-3 fatty acids and other oils.

You cannot live off of rabbit as your only protein. You can live off of fish as your only protein, but that's not what's being discussed.

A diet that is 100% fish can be toxic to humans. Both Omega-3 and Omega-6 are nessessary for humans but in high quantities they are also linked in liver and heart disease. Nutritionist and health professionals recommend no more than 3 to 4 servings of fish a week.

Ocean fish are also very high in mercury and microplastics.
