A recent study by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine reveals that women of childbearing age, pregnant and breastfeeding women, and children in the U.S. and Canada are not meeting recommended seafood intake levels. Conducted in Washington, D.C., the research, discussed in a webinar titled “The Role of Seafood Consumption in Child Growth and Development,” highlights the potential benefits of seafood consumption during pregnancy and lactation in promoting positive neurocognitive outcomes in children. Factors influencing seafood consumption patterns include residence in coastal communities and familiarity with preparation methods. Despite some increase in seafood consumption at a population level, intake among the target demographic remains consistently low over the past decade.
