  • Appendices to the Year 2000 Ohio Water Resource Inventory Sept 11
    Appendices to the Year 2000 Ohio Water Resource Inventory Bob Taft Governor, State of Ohio Christopher Jones Director, Ohio Environmental Protection Agency P.O. Box 1049 Lazarus Government Center, 122 S. Front Street Columbus, Ohio 43216-1049 Sept 11, 2000 Appendix A. OHIOSPORTFISH CONSUMPTIONADVISORY OHIODEPARTMENTOFHEALTHYEAR2000 FISHINGSEASON What Health Benefits do I get From Eating Sport Fish? Fish are nutritious and good to eat. Many doctors suggest that eating one half-pound of fish each week helps to prevent heart disease. Almost any kind of fish may have real health benefits when it replaces a high-fat source of protein in the diet. Fish eaten often provide valuable vitamins and minerals, high-quality protein, and beneficial oils that are low in saturated fat. Why is a Fish Consumption Advisory Needed? While most Ohio sport fish are of high quality, low levels of chemicals like polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), mercury, and lead have been found in some fish from certain waters. To ensure the continued good health of Ohioans, the Ohio Department of Health offers an advisory for how often these fish can be safely eaten. An advisory is advice, and should not be viewed as law or regulation. It is intended to help anglers and their families make educated choices about: Where you fish, what types of fish you eat, how to limit the amount and frequency of fish you consume, and how you prepare fish for cooking. By following these advisories, you can get the health benefits of fish and reduce unwanted contaminants. What Groups are Most Sensitive to Contaminatants? Contaminants in fish can be harmful to people of all ages, but the fetus and young children are especially sensitive to contaminants because their organs and systems are not yet fully developed.
