Every year, millions of people pull fish from the Great Lakes and its connecting rivers and even more buy them from stores, but many are missing the warnings about limiting how much fish you eat.

According to a study conducted by researchers at the University of Wisconsin, approximately half of all people in Great Lakes states are unaware of the recommended limits submitted by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Federal Drug Administration.
 

The study, which was published last month in the journal “Science of the Total Environment”, found that an estimated 5 million people in the Great Lakes region exceed the recommended fish intake of two meals or 12 ounces per week. Women, minorities, younger people and those with lower education levels showed to be less aware of fish advisories and more prone to exceed the limits.
