[QUOTE="noblehead, post: 1298649, member: 11028"] Fish is good for you [USER=349600]@wiseowl_123[/USER] , here's what the NHS Choices website says about fish consumption: [SIZE=4][B]How much oily fish should I eat?[/B][/SIZE] We should eat at least one portion (around 140g when cooked) of oily fish a week. Oily fish can contain low levels of pollutants that can build up in the body. For this reason, there are maximum recommendations for the number of portions we should be eating each week. These recommendations are different for different groups of people: [LIST] [*]The general population is advised to have no more than four portions of oily fish a week. [*]Women who are planning a pregnancy or who are currently pregnant or breastfeeding should eat no more than two portions of oily fish a week. This is because pollutants found in oily fish may affect the future development of a baby in the womb. [*]Children, pregnant women and women who are trying to get pregnant should not eat swordfish, as it contains more mercury than other fish. Other adults are advised to eat no more than one portion of swordfish per week. [/LIST] [URL]http://www.nhs.uk/Livewell/Goodfood/Pages/fish-shellfish.aspx[/URL] [/QUOTE]
