FDA & Mercury in Fish

This blog is about the article over industry money fans debate on fish. This article contradicts the rule of no fish while pregnant. How can something be proven for so long, then people just say something else, (like some fish is alright now) and people just go along with it. I think its important to find out the background information of where these findings are coming from. Some companies will take money and say anything for the person who gave the money. This is so ethically wrong, because people could get hurt. Especially from these findings about the fish being alright. The company took thousands of dollars to say this, and what if it isn't completely fine, and the future of Americas kids, now have birth defects because these mothers were told it was alright. I don't understand how the FDA would say its okay now about the fish, and scientist are saying its not. I sure wouldn't try eating fish if I was pregnant. It may be alright to eat fish now, but why risk it, because some company said from research that its alright, but yet they gave all this money for them to say it. Something seems 'fishy' about this whole situation.
