Tench : Can I eat this while pregnant? Can my baby eat this?

Information

Tanche is a kind of fish present in Lake Geneva and other lakes in Switzerland. Tanche is a fish rich in protein and vitamins, making it a healthy food for pregnant women. However, it is important to take into account certain factors to determine if the tanche is sure to consume during pregnancy. Tanche is rich in mercury, which can be harmful to the developing baby. However, the level of mercury in Lake Geneva is relatively low and, therefore, the tanche can be consumed occasionally during pregnancy. It is important not to eat a tanche more than twice a month. In addition, it is preferable to consume cooked rather than raw tanche. Cooking can reduce the mercury content of the tanche and reduce the risk of mercury poisoning. It is also preferable not to consume the skin and the strokes of the tanche, as they can contain high levels of mercury. In conclusion, the tanche can be consumed occasionally during pregnancy, provided that it is cooked and skinless and edges. It is important not to consume more than two portions of tanche per month and to choose fish that come from reliable sources.
