Guest guest Posted September 12, 2005 Report Share Posted September 12, 2005 Canned white albacore tuna= For a 50 pound child, eating 2oz of this would be exposing them to 120% of the EPA limit for mercury for a one week period. 1.6 ounces per week of canned albacore tuna exposes a 50 pound child to the EPAs " safe limit'. A 150 pound adult can eat 4.7 ounces of albacore tuna a week to reach the 100% level (maximum) of mercury.

Yes, tuna in spring water (or oil) is legal. Salt is okay as an ingredient also. > At which stage of the diet can this be added? After the intro you can introduce it.
