I am currently estimating mercury intake from seafood consumption but was having trouble finding previous research that provides any values for what a serving size is (in ounces or grams) at different childhood age groups -- preferably those under 5 years of age
I would prefer actual reported intake values, in addition to any variation by age, race/ethnicity, and gender
If I am unable to locate anything, I will likely have to resort to using recommended serving sizes from the FDA
Has anyone come across such data or reporting?
If your focus is the U.S., "What we eat in America" may be a good source:
