Pregnant? It’s best to avoid anchovies.
The Dutch Nutrition Centre (Voedingscentrum) currently advises against eating anchovies during pregnancy. When assessing fish, substances such as mercury, dioxins and PFAS are taken into account. For anchovies, there is currently not enough data available to fully assess their safety. As a result, the Health Council of the Netherlands has not been able to issue specific advice, and we therefore follow the guidance of the Voedingscentrum.
Fish Tales anchovies are caught in the northeastern Atlantic Ocean (FAO 27), off the coast of Cantabria in Spain.
