328: Just How Much Mercury is in Canned Tuna? Safe? What to Do?

Many strength athletes eat tuna for the cheap, low-fat protein, but are they risking their health due to high mercury. We examine this topic today by reviewing a research article analyzing mercury contents of canned tuna and then discuss the surprisingly imprecise science of trying to be precise with your food intake. John always reviews the full-text of every article, but you may view the free abstract by clicking here: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20821440 .
