Benefit and risk assessment of fish in the Norwegian diet - Scientific Opinion of the Steering Committee of the Norwegian Scientific Committee for Food and Environment
In 2006, VKM published “A comprehensive assessment of fish and other seafood in the
Norwegian diet”. The assessment supported the recommendation from Norwegian Health
authorities to eat more fish both for dinner and on sandwiches. In an update of the
assessment in 2014 VKM concluded that “the benefits from fish consumption clearly
outweigh the negligible risk presented by current levels of contaminants and other
undesirable substances in fish”. Because of new knowledge available, the Norwegian Food
Safety Authority requested a new benefit and risk assessment of fish in the Norwegian diet
in 2019. In the assignment, they asked VKM to answer the following questions:
Which health consequences will it have for the Norwegian population if they:
Continue with the same fish consumption levels as of today
Increase the consumption of fish to match the recommendations given by the
Norwegian Directorate of Health
