Alaska Health Officials Release New Guidelines On Fish Consumption For Females Of Childbearing Age, Young Children

"Alaska health officials on Monday released new guidelines on the amount of local fish women and girls of childbearing age, and young children should consume, the Anchorage Daily News reports. According to the recommendations, these groups can eat salmon from local waters in unlimited amounts without risking overexposure to mercury but should limit consumption of large halibut, shark, large lingcod, yelloweye rockfish and spiny dogfish because of mercury levels found in the fish."
