Just a reminder: All canned white tuna is albacore. Its mercury levels are almost three times higher than the smaller skipjack tuna, used in most canned light tuna products. According to information based on findings from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, a child weighing approximately 48 pounds that eats more than 1.4 ounces of tuna a week (that’s about one third of a can) can be at risk of brain damage due to mercury exposure. The same guidelines also stated that a woman weighing around 140 pounds would exceed their acceptable mercury exposure by eating more than 4.5 ounces of tuna a week. It is also advised that women who are pregnant avoid tuna or any other mercury-containing foods completely. Mercury poisoning can effect many parts of the body. The most notable effect it has is on the brain but it can also have an impact on other organs such as the kidneys, lungs and skin. Symptoms of mercury poisoning include: Red cheeks, fingers and toes Bleeding from the mouth and ears Rapid heartbeat High blood pressure Intense sweating Loss of hair, teeth and nails Blindness Loss of hearing Impaired memory Lack of coordination Abnormal speech patterns If you are experiencing any of these symptoms and are consuming a diet high in mercury-laden foods, you may be suffering from mild mercury poisoning.  

I'm not too worried about Mercury levels, because this is a short term cut.
