so this video is based on a question someone  had about the mercury in tuna fish there’s  

certain types of tuna that are good and  certain types that are not so good because  

they contain three times as much mercury now  the problem with mercury is it interferes with  

certain enzymes involving selenium and  certain fish have more selenium than others  

and so the mercury that’s in the environment  it’s in the water that the fish are exposed  

to might not affect you too much if there’s high  amounts of selenium because selenium can counter  

this mercury but you have to realize if there’s  too much mercury it can lock up these selenium  

enzymes rendering them in active and  this can create a whole series of mercury  

toxic symptoms okay like tremors headaches nausea  insomnia weak muscles twitches mood swings and  

there’s a lot of other symptoms as well and  so if you want tuna that’s lower in mercury  

skipjack is a good source and canned light tuna  now a better option would be to do the canned  

salmon sockeye or the pink alaskan salmon or  even wild called sardines but you want to avoid  

the tuna that is higher mercury and that would be  the albacore or the canned white tuna avoid that  

and then avoid ahi tuna which is yellowfin in  big eye because you’re going to get three times  

as much mercury now if your child is consuming  tuna you want to really bring down the frequency  

because really it’s dose dependent so i would  recommend your child consumes tuna maybe once  

a month now there are certain cultures that  consume dolphin or whale you have to realize  

you’re getting 20 times as much mercury as even  the tuna in the higher category alright so this  

was your short video regarding the mercury in tuna  hey before you go if you’re benefiting from any of  

my content i would love to hear about your success  story please share it in the link down below
