Question 10

can a pregnant woman eat sushi?

Accepted Answer

Do they in Japan?: The answer is yes and no. Apparently the Japanese have been doing it for who knows how long and are populating the world just fine. The theoretical risks are parasites and mercury but I am not aware of that being anything but an extremely rare occurrence. Possibly eating it daily for 9 months might accumulate enough mercury to cause a problem. I would recommend going to only high quality places.
