However, things have changed significantly, thanks to the extensive efforts of experts like\u00a0Charles Santerre<\/a>, a former food toxicology professor at the\u00a0Purdue University College of Health and Human Sciences<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Santerre, along with student researchers and a team of experts from across the United States, dedicated over a decade to unraveling the developmental benefits and risks associated with seafood consumption during pregnancy. Their research played a crucial role in establishing the foundation for seafood consumption standards that prioritize the health of babies and children.<\/p>\n

Today, the Food and Drug Administration and the Environmental Protection Agency, along with university-created websites such as\u00a0Fish for Your Health™<\/a>, provide science-based seafood consumption advice that advocates for eating seafood rich in omega-3 fatty acids and low in mercury and PCBs twice per week.<\/p>\n
