FDA Seafood Warning!!!
Hey All, I came across this interesting website that offers a lot of
information on the negative affects of having mercury in the seafood that we eat, and how it affects our families. All of the information is supported by the EPA and FDA, and as a woman it has really impacted the way my family and I eat seafood. I thought that this might be important to ensure our personal health and that of our babies. Hope its helpful! http://GotMercury.Org You can use the website to calculate how much of any fish is safe for you or your children to eat in a week based on your weight and using the government's formula for exposure. The government warns women and children not to eat swordfish, shark, tilefish, and king mackerel. Women and children should avoid tuna whenever possible. In fact, Consumer Reports just warned pregnant women not to eat canned tuna at all. We can all stand to avoid toxic mercury! |
