Got my mercury blood test result

[rastaman69]

I'd been eating a lot of canned tuna fish. Kirkland brand, comes in an 8 pack of large cans. 43g protein per can. I was making a sandwich for lunch everyday with a can of tuna.

I asked my doctor to run a mercury blood test, he told me I should just stop eating so much tuna. I insisted on the test though. My result came back at 1.7 ug/L. 6 ug/L is where it's unsafe. It makes me wonder what levels the average guy on the street has.

Takeaway: eating lots of Kirkland tuna isn't really a big deal.

So eating tuna every day isn't a big deal huh. Good to know.

I wonder what it would be for Bumble Bee Brand. I used to go through 50 cans a week back in my 20's.

Upon further reading, 6ug/l is no big deal either. I'm very comfortable coming in at 1.7.
