A. The FDA/EPA seafood advisory is based on a 10-fold safety factor, meaning that if pregnant and nursing women follow this advice, they will be consuming minute levels of mercury in fish that are at least ten times lower than the lowest level for any known risk. This level is the most conservative of any country in the world.
