Mercury Levels in Tuna ‘Higher than Ever’ – Limit Consumption to Reduce Mercury Exposure, Poisoning

While the FDA claims you can have as much as 12 ounces a week of light tuna and up to 6 ounces of albacore, test results from the Mercury Policy Project (MPP) say these amounts are much too high.

Mercury exposure through tuna, the MPP reports, is higher than ever, and kids especially should only be eating the fish on an occasional or even rare basis.

According to Medical News Today, the Mercury Policy Project has suggested children under 55 pounds should only have light tuna once per month and should never have albacore tuna.

Children over this weight can have light tuna up to twice per month, though less is ideal.

The exposure to mercury for children should be of even more concern for pregnant mothers, who can transfer the exposure to their unborn child.

Comment by Melanie Thomas on May 11, 2013 at 12:19am: yes, organic and mostly raw. eating food with it's enzymes has helped my energy and digestion a great deal.

Comment by mystery on May 10, 2013 at 8:26pm: I am glad to see you are trying to clean your system. Do you try to eat organic also?

Comment by Melanie Thomas on May 10, 2013 at 3:53pm: You also have to look out for silver fillings. If you get a lab test for mercury toxicity, did you know they actually return different results depending on whether you say you have fillings on the lab form? Ridiculous - so if you have fillings it's somehow safer to have more mercury in your body? Detox has nearly become a full time job for me.. working my way through these ones currently - http://naturaldetox.info - still a bit afraid of the enemas though.

Link to Bush purchase in Paraguay: http://fromtheleft.wordpress.com/2006/11/29/bush-family-purchases-1...

Jenna Bush went there under the guise of being with UNICEF and sat down with the president of Paraguay to finalize the deal for George W Bush. Article follows: http://www.godlikeproductions.com/forum1/message991882/pg1

This is a picture of the aquifer in Paraguay.

They also have the ice in the Arctic and Antarctic that contain water of pristine quality. They are able to harvest the ice because of their wealth. They will always have clean water because of the monetary wealth they have accumulated. This wealth allows them privileges that we as peasants are not privy to, or have the wealth to be able to obtain.

Comment by Nikki on October 16, 2012 at 2:10pm: If this is a plan of the elites, then it will take them down too. It will require eons for the world's water supplies to be safe again and that cycle can't even begin until the poisoning stops.

Comment by mystery on October 16, 2012 at 8:01am: My thought about the contamination of our streams,lakes and oceans is: If you really step back and look at it from a whole, you may begin to see that it is part of the agenda to eliminate the earth of about two thirds of the population. By poisoning the waters you can pretty much guaranty that will also poison most of the population. Most of the high population areas live close to the oceans, therefore they also more than likely consume sea food of some sort. To me it seems that the elitists have stepped up their game to accomplish their goal. Gulf spill pretty much took care of that fishing industry, also sickened a huge population and gave them a good reason to confiscate guns and property.

And now comes Fuk-u- Shima.......how many more are coming in a world gone mad?

Comment by Freedomrox on October 16, 2012 at 2:03am: It's funny, Tuna is harvested on the East Coast every year by fisherman to send to Japan for Sushi. Their own tuna is irradiated beyond measure and ours are mercury laden... Seems to be a full on move to eradicate the Japanese..... Wonder why? Fukushima is slowly killing us all, so why the bother?
