Our Philosophy

     With the development of technology and the continuous improvement of the quality of life, people are paying more and more attention to healthy diet. Fish contains many nutrients and is easily absorbed by human body (87%-98% absorption rate), making it the best meat choice for many people. However, in recent years, marine pollution has become more serious, so the quality of fish has been greatly affected. Among many marine pollutants, methylmercury is common and highly toxic. Intaking fish with a high level of methylmercury can cause irreversible damage to the body.​

     In order to help people choose seafood better, I created this website. I hope that through this website, I can spread the suggestions on seafood consumption and information about marine pollution, and I hope to call on everyone to protect our home planet together.

​About Us

Hello everyone! My name is Cindy and I'm currently an undergraduate at the University of Pennsylvania studying Computer Science and Finance. 

​

Growing up by the sea, my deep affinity for the ocean and our planet has always been a driving force in my life. With a strong passion in environmental science, I conducted a research on methylmercury contamination in seafood in summer 2021. Through this research, I become increasingly aware of the fragility of the Earth. As a doer and go-getter, I founded Fresh and Healthy, a non-profit organization. Our primary mission is to foster awareness about methylmercury contamination in seafood, empowering individuals to make informed and responsible seafood choices. Equally significant, our organization is committed to elevating global consciousness regarding the importance of protecting our planet.

 

Join us in our mission to protect the Earth and make wiser seafood choices. Together, we can make a difference.
