This app provides advice for pregnant or nursing women, women that may become pregnant, and young children in regards to healthful seafood consumption. Women can choose to eat commercial fish which will minimize their intake of mercury and PCBs while optimizing their intake of healthy fats. Healthy choices will benefit your baby by providing healthy fats for optimal brain and eye development while avoiding pollutants that can harm your baby's brain.

Features:
- Fish listed by category and alphabetically
- Advice provided in English, Spanish, Chinese (Traditional and Simplified)
- MyLog – allows you to keep a log of your seafood consumption and then view a report with your past seafood consumption and your omega-3 fatty acid, mercury and PCB intake.
- Daily notifications (able to be turned on or off) to remind you to add fish that you have eaten.
- Recipes for the best fish choices
- Link to our popular website, Fish4Health.net, which provides consumption advice for recreationally-caught fish from health departments across the U.S.

** Winner of Babble Top 25 iPhone Apps for Pregnancy in 2011
** This advice is being distributed in a wallet card by health departments in Florida and Indiana

Fish4Health was developed at Purdue University using the best and most trusted scientific evidence. Concentrations of omega-3 fatty acids and mercury in commercial fish were obtained from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agriculture Research Service’s Nutrient Database, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and a study conducted at Purdue University. Concentrations of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in fish were obtained from the Interstate Workgroup on Evaluating an Atlantic Coastal Advisory for Recreationally Caught Striped Bass and Bluefish. Recommendations for weekly seafood consumption were obtained from the 2010 Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee. Recommendations for pregnant or nursing women relating to omega-3 fatty acid intake were obtained from the National Academy of Sciences, Institute of Medicine. Safety limits for mercury and PCBs were obtained from the Environmental Protection Agency. The recommendation for proper cooking of fish to help avoid exposure to pathogens like Listeria monocytogenes which can terminate a pregnancy was obtained from FDA. Photos of popular fish were obtained from the FDA.

Funding for this app was obtained from: the USDA, National Institute for Food and Agriculture; the National Institutes of Health, Office of Dietary Supplements; the Illinois-Indiana Sea Grant College Program; and Purdue University.

Core Data
Use Core Data to save your application’s permanent data for offline use, to cache temporary data, and to add undo functionality to your app on a single device. Through Core Data’s Data Model editor, you define your data’s types and relationships, and generate respective class definitions. Core Data can then manage object instances at runtime to provide the following features.
Core Foundation Framework
Core Foundation is a framework that provides fundamental software services useful to application services, application environments, and to applications themselves. Core Foundation also provides abstractions for common data types, facilitates internationalization with Unicode string storage, and offers a suite of utilities such as plug-in support, XML property lists, URL resource access, and preferences.
Core Graphics
The Core Graphics framework is based on the Quartz advanced drawing engine. It provides low-level, lightweight 2D rendering with unmatched output fidelity. You use this framework to handle path-based drawing, transformations, color management, offscreen rendering, patterns, gradients and shadings, image data management, image creation, and image masking, as well as PDF document creation, display, and parsing.
Foundation Framework
The Foundation framework provides a base layer of functionality for apps and frameworks, including data storage and persistence, text processing, date and time calculations, sorting and filtering, and networking. The classes, protocols, and data types defined by Foundation are used throughout the macOS, iOS, watchOS, and tvOS SDKs.
Launch Services
macOS Launch Services is an API that enables a running app to open other apps or their document files, similar to the Finder or the Dock.Launch Services eliminates apps having to query the Finder to open an app, document, or URL for them. The macOS Finder itself uses Launch Services to perform such tasks. Because the Finder performs no additional processing beyond calling Launch Services, any client using Launch Services for these purposes behaves identically to the Finder.
UIKit
The UIKit framework (UIKit.framework) provides the crucial infrastructure needed to construct and manage iOS apps. This framework provides the window and view architecture needed to manage an app’s user interface, the event handling infrastructure needed to respond to user input, and the app model needed to drive the main run loop and interact with the system.
