How do pregnant women get enough Omega-3’s if they are supposed to avoid eating fish?
A. The U.S. government released a highly-publicized warning to pregnant women to avoid certain fish due to their mercury content (shark, tilefish, mackerel, and tuna). While most experts have diligently clarified that eating a variety of other fishes in moderation during pregnancy does not pose the same risk as eating the four fish identified to be high in mercury content, there is evidence that since this warning was released, women have decreased their intake of all fish. Because DHA and EPA are nearly impossible to eat in adequate amounts without fish in the diet, this trend may pose long-term health risks to both mother and baby. Omega-3 Brain Booster™ offers child-bearing women a means for getting the necessary amount of Omega-3 without the concerns about mercury.
