Mercury is a poisonous substance. Also it is normally in liquid form and evaporates so that gaseous mercury ian be easily breathed in. Exposure to mercury (particularly in shellfish) can interfere with pregnancy and prenatal health. Women who are or plan to become pregnant are advised to limit their seafood intake. Long-term exposure to mercury vapors can lead to brain damage, and insanity. The expression "mad as a hatter" comes from the days when haberdashers (hatmakers) used mercury to process felt and other materials for hats. Years of breathing in the vapors made them crazy.
