Feeding fish to snakes. Parasites/worms?

I've heard from a few guys to never feed live fish to your snakes because they could carry worms or parasites and it's a quick way to kill the snake. I just got some garters and didn't know the best way to go about this? Feed frozen/thawed fish, live fish, a certain kind of fish, human consumption fish.

Also if human consumption fish, does it matter if fresh or salt water species of fish? Like a garter isn't gonna obviously eat tuna in the wild. (An no I wouldn't give my garter a good fish like tuna to eat, it's just an example)
