Nutrition Recommendations for Estonian Fishermen (Dioxins and Dioxin-Like Polychlorinated Biphenyls)
2013
Nutrition survey of coastal fishermen was conducted in May 2010, when the fishing season was at its peak. More than half of the participants in the survey eat fish and fish products in April and May more than during the second half of the year At that time fishermen and their families eat fish the most. Thus, the amount of toxins found in the course of the survey, which the fishermen and their family members were exposed to, is greater than the average of the year. Based on an earlier monitoring of dioxins, the presence of dioxins can be stated to depend greatly on the type, age, size and other biological characteristics of the fish, and also on the fat content in the consumed fish. It is not recommended for coastal fishermen and their family members to consume Baltic herring over 22 cm long (more than 8 year old) more than a couple of times a month. At present the Baltic herring in Estonian coastal waters is mostly 2-4 years old and eight-year-old Baltic herring forms a couple of per cent from the catch.
