Do you eat fish?

[Guest guest]

Unfortunately in these times Mercury is a concern when choosing to

eat fish. According to these tables SALMON tests very low to non-

existent for mercury contamination. The levels in canned/fresh/frozen

were not detectable in all samples tested. I used to eat a LOT of

Tuna (fancy Albacore nontheless) until much to my astonishment and

chagrin I discovered it was full of it. What I am getting around to

here is I want to eat more fish for the obvious health reasons but I

don't want to load up on mercury (also for obvious reasons). This is

like a catch-22.. darned if you do darned if you don't :-|

So, my question to all of you is what do you do? Do you eat fish? If

so, what kind and how much? If not, why, and what do you do to 'make

up for the difference'?

Canned Salmon would be very very convenient and inexpensive (I think

it was who said about buck and half per can). The

problem I have is why does Salmon measure so low in mercury? I find

it hard to believe but on other hand I have no reason to dis-

believe. ;-)

Again, what do YOU do?

TIA.

Here are tables (very well laid out i might add):
