A member asked:
Does canned tuna affect the elderly? if taken 3 times a week. and how many times a week did he eat it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Perhaps the biggest issue is the mercury level in the canned tuna. True organic mercury poisoning is highly unusual when eating canned tuna thrice weekly, and I suspect there is little to nothing to fret about.
