Is other seafood such as crustacea or molluscs a concern?
No. Crustacea (including prawns, lobster and crabs) and molluscs (including oysters and calamari) generally contain lower levels of mercury than finfish. Also, crustacea and molluscs tend not to be consumed as regularly, therefore they are not a concern. NOTE: You should be aware some crustacea and molluscs can pose other health concerns for pregnant women – see the Food Authority’s fact sheets below for more information.
