FIGURE 27.4: Estimated EPA1DHA and methylmercury content of different seafood species (per 3 oz. portion). *Cooked, dry heat; **cooked, moist heat; ***the EPA1DHA content in Pacific salmon is a composite from chum, Coho, and sockeye species. Species indicated in black should be avoided by at-risk population groups (i.e., women who are pregnant, could become pregnant, or are lactating, and infants and young children) due to methylmercury concentrations that exceed recommended safe intakes. Gray indicates that consumption should be limited to 6 oz. per week for atrisk population groups. Source: M.C. Nesheim, A.L.
