Answer: D - The Environmental Protection Agency and the Food and Drug Administration in the US recommend pregnant women limit their fish consumption to 12 ounces per week, with no more than six ounces of tuna. Pregnant moms should avoid shark, swordfish, king mackerel, and tilefish. These guidelines were put in place to limit fetal exposure to certain environmental contaminants, including mercury, which may cause birth defects or other complications. Fish is a good source of omega-3 fatty acids, and should remain a portion of a pregnant mother's diet.
