No one? There is A LOT of members on this site. And I have yet to hear anyone say I got mercury poisoning from tuna. Has anyone ever had the problem? I think more of us have had salmonella poisoning by far.

This thread is making me go uncharacteristically crazy for some reason
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

i was eating 2 cans a day for a period of about 3 weeks. While at work one day i passed out and eventually woke up and vomited everywhere. I had extremely low blood pressure and was light headed for a while. They said it was a very slight case of merc poisoning.

I'd think it was I go through a big can a week, it's 4lbs 2.5oz. I do eat garlic and get more than enough BCAAs. That supposedly lowers your risk. And seaweed with my sushi.Originally Posted by Vagitarian

eat sardines...
btw, I don't think you always end up with 'mercury poisoning' after eating too much tuna, but are affected by the mercury in a more acute sense that you can't really physically feel ..
if anyone is really wants to know, get a blood test and don't go by how you generally 'feel'..The snozzberries taste like snozzberries!

Eat cilantro it is suppose to remove heavy metals from the body. Also eat tons of vegetables.

Have a buddy, eats so much tuna with mercury he swells from the heat like a thermometer.
We can tell what the temperature is outside by how many inches his neck is over his 1970's lapels.Last edited by eddiebo; 03-25-2009 at 01:02 PM.
