Mercury poisoning from eating too much tuna

No, OP. The amount of tuna you'd have to consume every day would make you a fat whore, unable to fit through the door.

I remember that time he gave me $500 to have an abortion and instead I used the money to buy a PlayStation.

Adults should eat no more than 12 ounces of tuna per week.

Oh my gawd, OP, it's GHASTLY!

I never eat more than one serving of tuna per week, to reduce mercury exposure. I eat the Tuna Creations, so that's 2.6oz per week for me. High in protein, low in calories.

It would be nice if they put the estimated mercury amount on the nutrition label.

WTF?

I don’t want the mercury in tuna, so I snack on glass thermometers instead.

I sprouted little wings on my feet once.

I can't find myself in a mirror anymore.

Daphne Zuniga had mercury poisoning from eating too much tuna. She was on Howard Stern talking about. Maybe the video is YouTube, or the rundown on marksfriggin.com

R10 I think she self diagnosed that

If it can happen to Daphne Zuniga...

Tuna is Disssgusting.

Am I correct in reading many months ago that the mercury content is higher in cans than in the pouches?

I like tuna, but I always buy albacore. The recommendation is to limit oneself to 4 oz per week.

It happened to Linda Fiorentino too. It is why she had to drop out of acting.

Unfortunate, for those who aren't immune.

[quote] "It happened to Linda Fiorentino too. It is why she had to drop out of acting."

I understand the same thing also happened to Julia Ormond, shortly after "Sabrina".

4oz = one can. No more than one can per week.

R16 Hardly

Can you get it from using it vaginally?

My precum gathers in my shoes.

Which is better to consume in terms of mercury levels - dark (light) or white tuna?

Stephanie Miller claims to have had it, too, from eating sushi several times a week.

What kind of troll is starting these insulting threads?

And what kind of people rise to the bait every time?

Light tuna (darker meat, smaller fish) has less mercury on average than albacore (lighter meat, larger fish). See the linked article.

One level teaspoon of mercury per month is okay.

I tried vegan tuna. One brand was Loma Linda. It was nasty. The other was Good Catch. Also nasty. It's a shame there is so much focus on creating realistic vegan beef and pork (because they're responsible for more pollution) because I never liked that stuff anyway. I prefer seafood, of which nothing on the market as a vegan replica is edible yet. I would love some good vegan shrimp, cod fillets and fish sticks.

All these vegan substitutes are ultra-processed food packed with chemicals that will give you cancer too.

Oh yeah R16 & R18, that's why Madonna stopped acting too! Her meteoric rise to Oscar territory ruined by fish. Just terrible.

[quote]Light and skipjack varieties, for instance, contain much less mercury on average than albacore tuna.

That is useful information. I will avoid albacore.

The only person who ever experienced this was Jeremy Piven. Except even that was a lie.

I got it and went from a tenor to an alto. My front upper teeth grew and became protruding.

Although R29 is generally correct, I'll share R28 some of my experience having eaten and cooked vegetarian for a number of years back in the 1990s until the present.

Fake tuna like Loma Linda is nasty because it's seasoned so strangely. It's nothing more than TVP anyway. In the 90s, we used plain TVP, rehydrated with vegetable broth for extra flavor, to make fake-tuna-like salads and casseroles.

Sophie's Kitchen makes various vegan seafood analogues like shrimp, crab cakes, even lox. They are made from konjac, and as such, have no nutrition, very few calories, and little flavor. Saucing is everything with these products - you can make a great scampi with the fake shrimp, for instance.

If you have a Loving Hut restaurant near you, they sell some fake meat and seafood products in their freezer case that are marginally better than most of what is out there.

I never eat tuna fish 🐟.

In fact for lunch on Monday I’m having MOCK Tuna .

R35 I make chickpea salad sandwiches and they’re good.

R36- There's a recipe for a tunafish sandwich at the NYT and someone wrote a letter saying they substitute chickpea's for the tuna and I decided to do it myself- I made a very tasty sandwich with-

Chickpeas

Fresh Parsley

Fresh Dill

Vegenaise

Fresh Lemon Juice

Black Pepper

Garlic Powder

Tahini

R37 is me R35

Saw this thread, messagedmy PCP on MyChart to confirm. Chunk light tuna is find but limit albacore to no more than 2 servings per week for a healthy adult.

I simply don't understand how any type of tuna can be sold to the public if there's a danger of mercury poisoning if you eat more than two servings per week. And if certain kinds of tuna are dangerous and others are not, why not limit sales to the kind that's not dangerous?

It's better than imitation crab, or otherwise known as hot-dog-of-the-sea.

Your dick falls off, OP.

Dear Sealion R40, the reasons are outlined in the link at R26. Tuna is popular, relatively inexpensive, and has healthful qualities to it. There aren't any strong substitutes for canned tuna.

The article hints at but doesn't go into detail to explain that many types of seafood are contaminated with mercury. That's why the article says 'max 3 servings a week if you don't consume any other seafood.'

There aren't mercury-less tuna available. The article talks about one company that tests every tuna it catches for mercury and only packages with its label those with very low levels. But this effort makes Safe Catch brand cost 2 to 4 times that of other canned tuna brands.

Why is tuna so high in mercury and not other fish?

Didn't Christian Bale eat a can of tuna a day when he was preparing to film "The Machinist"?

[QUOTE] Why is tuna so high in mercury and not other fish?

I don't know. Salmon and tilapia are fine. Must be something about the waters in which tuna are caught.

[QUOTE] Didn't Christian Bale eat a can of tuna a day when he was preparing to film "The Machinist"?

I doubt that story. There's no way he could have made through filming. Mercury poisoning, is known to cash hives, brain fog and even fibromyalgia.

R1 Right. So ... Uh ... How much again?

Tina is chicken OP. You’ll be fine

r44 From what I understand tuna take several years to get to a size worth catching. The longer a fish feeds at sea the more mercury it will absorb. Many other fish are caught relatively young, i.e. they've spent less time in the ocean than tuna usually do, and therefore ingest less mercury.

Chelation therapy(various chemicals are administered that change the mercury to an insoluble form that can be excreted) is available for mercury poisoning, success is variable. You CAN get blood, urine and hair tests to find out if you have mercury in your system, but the numbers don't relate well to actual levels.

Back to chickpeas. 🤫

R49, R45, and R46, thank you.

i eat a bunch of it like 8 cans a week

Replace your tuna with salmon kids. Also, Alaskan wild salmon or pacific waters salmon have lower levels than farm raised salmon, go figure that riddle out, I don’t get it either.

It will turn you gay.

too much fish = fibro

[quote]Mercury poisoning from eating too much tuna

This is a private matter between you and yo fat mama, OP.

But I'd suggest you stop doing that. It's nasty and sick.

What if the tuna can has No Mercury written on the label, label, label?

Saw this thread and picked up a can of albacore. No warning on the label.

r53 I don't know if it'll turn you gay, but it might make you GRAY. Which is what farm-raised salmon would be if their diet didn't include ingredients to give them that lovely salmon-y orange-y color we look for when we go shopping.

eating fish made me gay

Eating quiche made me gay.

Eating ice cream made me Fat
