Pregnancy guidance

Recommended

Cooked Atlantic cod is recommended during pregnancy as an FDA Best Choice fish. It provides lean dietary protein, essential iodine for fetal thyroid function, and choline. Cook fresh or frozen cod fillets to an internal temperature of 145°F until the flesh turns milky white and separates cleanly. Season with garlic, dill, and a squeeze of fresh lemon to enhance flavor without adding heavy sauces.
