Usahawan kaya dari kota terkejut menjumpai nelayan di pantai sedang berbaring bermalas-malasan di samping perahunya, sambil mengisap rokok. ‘Mengapa engkau tidak pergi menangkap ikan?’ tanya usahawan itu. ‘Karena ikan yang kutangkap telah menghasilkan cukup uang untuk makan hari ini,’ jawab nelayan. ‘Mengapa tidak kau tangkap lebih banyak lagi daripada yang kau perlukan?’ tanya usahawan. ‘Untuk apa?’ nelayan balas bertanya. ‘Engkau dapat mengumpulkan uang lebih banyak,’ jawabnya. ‘Dengan uang itu engkau dapat membeli motor tempel, sehingga engkau dapat melaut lebih jauh dan menangkap ikan lebih banyak.

Alergi ikan dan hewan laut lain seperti udang dan kepiting merupakan salah satu jenis alergi makanan yang paling umum. Dahulu para peneliti menduga bahwa mengenalkan makanan laut di usia dini mungkin meningkatkan risiko alergi di kemudian hari. Namun belakangan ini, pendapat itu telah banyak disangkal. Para peneliti justru kini menduga bahwa memperkenalkan ikan pada usia dini justru dapat membantu melindungi terhadap alergi. Hasil penelitian mengenai hal itu banyak sekali, di antaranya adalah studi yang dipublikasikan di jurnal  Pediatrics  tahun lalu, yang menemukan prevalensi gejala mirip asma yang lebih rendah di antara anak-anak yang dikenalkan untuk makan ikan antara usia 6 dan 12 bulan. Penelitian yang “mendompleng” studi kelompok kelahiran berbasis populasi di Rotterdam, Belanda itu menemukan bahwa pengenalan ikan pada usia anak antara 6 dan 12 bulan– tetapi tidak sesudahnya– berkaitan dengan prevalensi  wheezing  (mengi) yang rendah. Paparan mak...
