CR tested canned tuna from BumbleBee, Chicken of the Sea, StarKist, and other popular brands.
Tuna, like many other types of fish, often contains mercury, which can be toxic to adults and is of particular concern to children, infants, and, especially, pregnant people.
Mercury is a known neurotoxin. Too much of it is harmful to children, whose bodies and brains are still growing. In high amounts it can even be harmful to adults, causing problems with fine motor coordination, speech, sleep, and walking, and prickly sensations. But it’s of particular concern for pregnant people, because the developing brains and nervous systems of their babies are particularly vulnerable to mercury, Rogers says.
It’s everywhere; on our land, in the rain, snow, our waters, our food, our central nervous system, our brain, and even in the human placenta! Mercury is poisoning life on Earth.
