Do I need to be cautious while having wolffish during pregnancy

Yes, the French Agency for Food, an Environmental and Occupational Health & Safety website considers wolffish to be contaminated with environmental pollutants like mercury and methylmercury. High doses of these chemicals can be detrimental to the human nervous system. It can also lead to mercury poisoning and cause irrepairable brain damage to your unborn child. Hence, it is recommended to limit your intake of wolffish during pregnancy.
