Additional Comments:
• Not all "light tuna" is pure skipjack tuna. It is sometimes skipjack tuna mixed with yellowfin and/or bigeye tuna.
• Tuna is high in selenium. Methylmercury binds to selenium which helps neutralize its toxic effects. Scientists have found that diets rich in selenium reduce the neurotoxic effects of mercury. The current recommendations are based solely on methylmercury intake and do not take selenium intake into account.
