    The FDA makes guidelines that are intended to represent what will work for the 'common man/woman'.. which is usually a very inaccurate representation of any of us here :P

    Also, the FDA plays it on the extreme safeside as it relates to any seafood recommendations due to the mecury poisoning risks.

    The benefits of tuna outweigh the dangers..

    I think Aries got mercury poisoning from too much Tuna before, we should ask him how much he was taking in.

      What??

      I thought John said he ate a shitload of tuna and DIDN’T have any problems as far as he knew??

      I eat a can of tuna every morning except on weekends and I haven’t noticed anything after half a year of doing this. I really don’t think that mercury is going to kill me any time soon though. I’m more concerned over drunk drivers than I am with canned fish and what the FDA says.

      Next week we’re probably going to find out that a special enzyme in tuna helps to retard the growth of cancer cells. *crosses fingers*

        I could have sworn he got mercury poisoning but cannot find notation of it anywhere, we'll have to wait for him to chime in.

                  HOLY SH*T!!! I wouldn't be surprised if your breath still smells like fish food.


                  Damn, how the hell did your taste buds handle that in the first place?

                            Mercury - Risk for those using Hg (mercury) products, kids and pregnant women at greatest risk
                            Types
                            • Elemental – well absorbed if inhaled, poor absorption if ingested; CNS toxicity
                            • Mercury salt – absorbed by GI, not cross BBB (CNS ok), toxic to kidneys *this type in fish
                            • Methyl mercury – absorbed by inhalation, dermal contact, ingestion; toxic to blood and CNS

                            Toxicity –mech unclear, has affinity for SH groups disrupts proteins; cz cerebral palsy, MR, blind, deaf
                            Sx may not be immediate
                            Test – 24hr urine; 20-100 see irritability, minor tremor, 500-1000 inflammed kidney, swollen gums
                            Seafood – avoid: shark, swordfish, king mackerel; 2-3 servings a wk of other fish is recommended . . . tuna is pretty safe but I would not recommend eating a boat load of it

                              Intresting, but I also eat only tilipa which is suppose to be the lowest in mercury
