They’re very similar to the 2004 guidelines, with a few notable changes for pregnant women. The FDA kept its recommended limit of 12 ounces of fish per week for these women–but also established, for the first time, a minimum recommendation of eight ounces, saying pregnant and breastfeeding women should “eat more fish that is lower in mercury in order to gain important developmental and health benefits.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the FDA warns against the four types of fish with the highest mercury levels–swordfish, shark, king mackerel, and Gulf of Mexico tilefish (with marlin and orange roughy under consideration to be added to that list)–it issues no such caution for tuna.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to a report in the October 2014 issue of \u003ca href=\"http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/magazine/2014/10/can-eating-the-wrong-fish-put-you-at-higher-risk-for-mercury-exposure/index.htm\" target=\"_blank\">Consumer Reports\u003c/a>, however, high tuna consumption may do more harm than good. Using FDA data, the group found that mercury levels in canned tuna can be quite high: “Up around .8 or .9 parts per million, which is close to the Do Not Eat list,” says Jean Halloran, director of food policy initiatives at Consumers Union, the advocacy arm of Consumer Reports.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the general population, the risk from tuna is relatively low–because the body processes and excretes mercury over time, if it’s not ingested continuously at high levels. The issue for pregnant women, explains Halloran, is the potential for “spikes” in mercury consumption because there’s no way to tell which cans are higher or lower in mercury. There’s also no way to know when you’ve reached the upper limit of safe.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We recommend that for women who are actually pregnant, that they not eat any tuna for the duration of the pregnancy,” says Halloran. “Because you just never know when you’re going to get one of these high-mercury cans.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And while one spike of mercury isn’t deadly for a fetus, it poses the risk of “subtle effects on neurological development,” she adds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Consumer Reports agrees with most of the other recommendations FDA has proposed, the group has some sharp criticism of the agency’s decision to remove an easy-to-understand chart illustrating the mercury content of various fish and replace it with an alphabetical list of fish that omits the quantity of mercury contained in each fish. Consumer Reports sent a \u003ca href=\"https://consumersunion.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/FDA_Letter_Mercury_Levels_Fish.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">letter\u003c/a> to Michael Taylor, FDA’s Deputy Commissioner for Foods, urging the agency to immediately re-post the chart.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_86664\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1024px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/08/CR-Mercury-in-Fish-GRAPHIC-1024x1024.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/08/CR-Mercury-in-Fish-GRAPHIC-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Good Choices If You Want More Fish.

The agency said: “The Consumer Reports analysis is limited in that it focuses exclusively on the mercury levels in fish without considering the known positive nutritional benefits attributed to fish.” Its explanation for removing the chart from its website was similar: “The current science no longer supported categorizing fish solely by mercury levels. The reference chart was also developed for researchers and FDA staff and never intended to be used as a guide for consumers.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That leaves Halloran unsatisfied. By recommending that women of childbearing age eat 8 to 12 ounces per week of lower-mercury fish, she argues, the FDA does in fact categorize fish on the basis of mercury levels. “How can they say the science doesn’t support such categorizing, when FDA itself talks about the category?” she asks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cosumer Reports would also like the agency to tell consumers which fish they think consumers should eat. “FDA only gives a few examples of low-mercury fish in their guidance–many equally-low mercury fish are not mentioned,” says Halloran.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For those trying to eat low-mercury seafood, Halloran says the Consumer Reports maintains their own list of nearly 20 safe choices (see chart above), and all are approved by the Monterey Bay Aquarium’s \u003ca href=\"http://www.seafoodwatch.org/seafood-recommendations\" target=\"_blank\">Seafood Watch\u003c/a> program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>About the Writer\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nRachel Cernansky is a Denver-based freelance journalist, primarily covering the environment, social justice, and nutrition.

They’re very similar to the 2004 guidelines, with a few notable changes for pregnant women. The FDA kept its recommended limit of 12 ounces of fish per week for these women–but also established, for the first time, a minimum recommendation of eight ounces, saying pregnant and breastfeeding women should “eat more fish that is lower in mercury in order to gain important developmental and health benefits.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the FDA warns against the four types of fish with the highest mercury levels–swordfish, shark, king mackerel, and Gulf of Mexico tilefish (with marlin and orange roughy under consideration to be added to that list)–it issues no such caution for tuna.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to a report in the October 2014 issue of \u003ca href=\"http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/magazine/2014/10/can-eating-the-wrong-fish-put-you-at-higher-risk-for-mercury-exposure/index.htm\" target=\"_blank\">Consumer Reports\u003c/a>, however, high tuna consumption may do more harm than good. Using FDA data, the group found that mercury levels in canned tuna can be quite high: “Up around .8 or .9 parts per million, which is close to the Do Not Eat list,” says Jean Halloran, director of food policy initiatives at Consumers Union, the advocacy arm of Consumer Reports.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the general population, the risk from tuna is relatively low–because the body processes and excretes mercury over time, if it’s not ingested continuously at high levels. The issue for pregnant women, explains Halloran, is the potential for “spikes” in mercury consumption because there’s no way to tell which cans are higher or lower in mercury. There’s also no way to know when you’ve reached the upper limit of safe.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We recommend that for women who are actually pregnant, that they not eat any tuna for the duration of the pregnancy,” says Halloran. “Because you just never know when you’re going to get one of these high-mercury cans.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And while one spike of mercury isn’t deadly for a fetus, it poses the risk of “subtle effects on neurological development,” she adds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Consumer Reports agrees with most of the other recommendations FDA has proposed, the group has some sharp criticism of the agency’s decision to remove an easy-to-understand chart illustrating the mercury content of various fish and replace it with an alphabetical list of fish that omits the quantity of mercury contained in each fish. Consumer Reports sent a \u003ca href=\"https://consumersunion.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/FDA_Letter_Mercury_Levels_Fish.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">letter\u003c/a> to Michael Taylor, FDA’s Deputy Commissioner for Foods, urging the agency to immediately re-post the chart.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_86664\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1024px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/08/CR-Mercury-in-Fish-GRAPHIC-1024x1024.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2014/08/CR-Mercury-in-Fish-GRAPHIC-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Good Choices If You Want More Fish.

The agency said: “The Consumer Reports analysis is limited in that it focuses exclusively on the mercury levels in fish without considering the known positive nutritional benefits attributed to fish.” Its explanation for removing the chart from its website was similar: “The current science no longer supported categorizing fish solely by mercury levels. The reference chart was also developed for researchers and FDA staff and never intended to be used as a guide for consumers.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That leaves Halloran unsatisfied. By recommending that women of childbearing age eat 8 to 12 ounces per week of lower-mercury fish, she argues, the FDA does in fact categorize fish on the basis of mercury levels. “How can they say the science doesn’t support such categorizing, when FDA itself talks about the category?” she asks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cosumer Reports would also like the agency to tell consumers which fish they think consumers should eat. “FDA only gives a few examples of low-mercury fish in their guidance–many equally-low mercury fish are not mentioned,” says Halloran.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For those trying to eat low-mercury seafood, Halloran says the Consumer Reports maintains their own list of nearly 20 safe choices (see chart above), and all are approved by the Monterey Bay Aquarium’s \u003ca href=\"http://www.seafoodwatch.org/seafood-recommendations\" target=\"_blank\">Seafood Watch\u003c/a> program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>About the Writer\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nRachel Cernansky is a Denver-based freelance journalist, primarily covering the environment, social justice, and nutrition.

I found my source of Chimes at Andronico's, but still eat Ginger People in a pinch.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Trader Joe's Triple Ginger Cookies\u003c/b> and \u003cb>Trader Joe's Vanilla JoeJoe's Cookies:\u003c/b> First of all, it's a ginger 3-way with the ginger cookies, so that's fantastic. Second of all, even if I weren't pregnant, I'd be craving these vanilla JoeJoe's. No, they aren't just like Oreos or other sandwich cookies out there. For god's sake, people, they have actual vanilla bean in the cream filling! Highly addictive and a perfect midnight snack.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.threelollies.com/\">\u003cb>Preggie Pops:\u003c/b>\u003c/a> Yes, it seems like a rip-off to buy very special pregnancy candies when you can just rely on lemon drops or Sour Patch Kids, but I was intrigued, so in the interest of research and in the interest of having a full arsenal to combat nausea, I ordered these. They come in sour fruit flavors (lemon, apple, raspberry, tangerine) and herbal (peppermint, ginger, lavender) and you can buy mixed or single flavors of some. My reaction? Not bad. I went through all the fruit first and picked my way around the herbals. They definitely quelled my rising gorge in times of car trouble, so it was money well spent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's not a long or balanced list by any means, but I wasn't being a Renaissance eater during weeks 6-13. You really don't care about the lack of dietary variety when you're just praying it will all stay down.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Good luck!

I've been this way for awhile and so learned early on in life that Dramamine was my friend, my confident, my constant companion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I had feared that pregnancy might be much worse for me because of this disposition. (Remembering a ten-year-old \u003ci>New Yorker\u003c/i> article that talked about pregnant women who have uncontrollable nausea and vomiting to the point of hospitalization didn't help allay my worst fears.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Happily, I was wrong. Aside from those annoying people, who don't ever get any morning, noon, or night sickness, I don't think my nausea was any worse than what a lot of others experience in 1st trimester.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The most valuable thing I learned was that the nausea was a result of a blood sugar drop -- explaining why it's worse in the morning and therefore given the totally fallacious name of \"Morning Sickness\" -- so as long as I had enough food in me at all times, I'd be okay. In order to stave off what was for me 24-hour nausea, I had to eat every two hours.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My stomach was a clock. It would even wake me up in the middle of the night to warn me of waves of impending ickiness. I started keeping food next to my bed because, as the books warned, even the mere act of walking to the kitchen was a lot of effort for a body that was working hard to build a baby from scratch. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ignoring the resulting crumbs, crackers and almonds were my food of choice for middle-of-the-night noshing.

I learned early on that the rush of protein these nuts gave me was a sure-fire way to get ahead of the nausea.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Apples and Cheddar Cheese:\u003c/b> This was pretty much my lunch for seven weeks. Apples have always been a stomach-soother for me and the cheese was that needed protein. The cheese wasn't fancy -- as you might have expected from an old \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2006/02/16/pssst-wanna-buy-some-cheese/\">cheesemonger\u003c/a> -- it was just bulk, yellow, grocery store cheddar. Comfort food.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Grilled Cheese Sandwiches:\u003c/b> Ah, the ultimate in comfort food. Yes, I ate a lot of these in first trimester because I couldn't handle anything else. What is it about grilled cheese sandwiches and why are they so comforting for so many of us? Is it all rooted in childhood? With a lot of psychoanalysis, I'm sure we could get to the bottom of it some day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Totino's Frozen Pizza:\u003c/b> Again, maybe it's going back to childhood and what we all individually define as comfort food, but Totino's was something we always had at birthday parties when I was a kid. Totino's Cheese Pizza was my Thanksgiving turkey this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Drink\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gleaning facts from \u003ca href=\"http://www.restaurantwhore.com/\">friends\u003c/a> and books and the ever-opinionated Internet, I discovered that sour flavors were great for beating off nausea.

Plus, it's very important to stay hydrated throughout pregnancy, so get that liquid into yourself any way you can.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>San Pellegrino Limonata:\u003c/b> Not sweet or sugary, this \"lemonade\" has sparkling water to soothe the stomach riots and a nice bracing citrus edge to it. I love this stuff and drink it regularly now. With some bruised fresh mint, it makes an easy and refreshing mocktail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.fever-tree.com/\">\u003cb>Fever-Tree Ginger Ale:\u003c/b>\u003c/a> Yes, I love \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2007/05/17/fever-tree-revisited-ginger-ale/\">Fever-Tree\u003c/a> so much, it even cures my nausea.

It's a doozy of a drink!)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Sparkling Water:\u003c/b> The partner to my Carr's Water Crackers in all times of tummy trouble, sparkling water is stalwart and true. During weeks 6-13, I stuck with the flavorless variety even though I normally prefer lemon (and now \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2009/04/25/pink-grapefruit-perrier/\">PAMPLEMOUSSE!\u003c/a>) because the less flavor the better for me.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Miscellaneous\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These are a few things that I either carried with me in case of a nausea emergency or gulleted to give me a stomach boost when I knew my preferred food might not be immediately gettable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Ginger Chews:\u003c/b> \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2009/04/07/ginger-lovers-unite/\">Jen wrote about these\u003c/a> a few weeks ago. Before pregnancy, I was exclusively buying the Ginger People chews at Trader Joe's, but then Jen introduced me to the firmer Chimes chews, which don't go all soft and hygroscopic-y in their wrappers, and I was converted. I found my source of Chimes at Andronico's, but still eat Ginger People in a pinch.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Trader Joe's Triple Ginger Cookies\u003c/b> and \u003cb>Trader Joe's Vanilla JoeJoe's Cookies:\u003c/b> First of all, it's a ginger 3-way with the ginger cookies, so that's fantastic. Second of all, even if I weren't pregnant, I'd be craving these vanilla JoeJoe's. No, they aren't just like Oreos or other sandwich cookies out there. For god's sake, people, they have actual vanilla bean in the cream filling! Highly addictive and a perfect midnight snack.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.threelollies.com/\">\u003cb>Preggie Pops:\u003c/b>\u003c/a> Yes, it seems like a rip-off to buy very special pregnancy candies when you can just rely on lemon drops or Sour Patch Kids, but I was intrigued, so in the interest of research and in the interest of having a full arsenal to combat nausea, I ordered these. They come in sour fruit flavors (lemon, apple, raspberry, tangerine) and herbal (peppermint, ginger, lavender) and you can buy mixed or single flavors of some. My reaction? Not bad. I went through all the fruit first and picked my way around the herbals. They definitely quelled my rising gorge in times of car trouble, so it was money well spent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's not a long or balanced list by any means, but I wasn't being a Renaissance eater during weeks 6-13.
