What's up, fish lovers! I'm curious about swordfish and mercury levels. Does anyone know if it's high in mercury? I love the taste but want to make sure I'm eating it safely. Any insights or tips on how often it's okay to enjoy? Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

Hey there! Swordfish can indeed contain higher levels of mercury compared to some other types of fish. It's generally recommended to enjoy swordfish in moderation, especially if you're pregnant or have young children. If you're concerned about mercury levels, it's always a good idea to check with your local health authorities or seafood experts for the latest recommendations. Better safe than sorry when it comes to our health!
