Fish• Eat 2‐3 servings a week (8 to 12 ounces in total) of a variety of fish
• Eat only 1 serving a week (no more than 6 ounces) of some fish, such as albacore (white) tuna and fish with similar mercury concentrations to albacore (white) tuna
• Avoid certain fish with the highest mercury concentrations
• Check for advisories for fish caught by family and friends and where no advisories exist, limit eating those fish to one serving a week and do not eat other fish that week.
