Information

No, it is not recommended to eat marlin during pregnancy. Marlin is a species of fish that contains large amounts of mercury. Mercury can be harmful to the development of the fetus, especially for the nervous system. It is therefore important to limit or completely avoid the consumption of Marlin during pregnancy. In addition, the marlin is considered a high -level fish, which means that it is very rich in protein, but also in saturated fats and cholesterol. These nutrients are necessary during pregnancy, but they should be consumed in moderation. In conclusion, it is therefore preferable to avoid consuming marlin during pregnancy for your health and that of your baby.
