Microblog: Other Options of Fish with Lower Amounts of Mercury

Not everyone loves sardines. Here are other options of fish with lower amounts of mercury based on an FDA report from 1990–2012.

📖In @CarnivoreCure, I explain that our exposure to mercury toxicity is not really due to seafood.

🦈Yes, if you eat tilefish, swordfish and bigeye tuna daily, you risk a higher chance of mercury toxicity.

☠️But oftentimes mercury toxicity is from amalgam fillings, CFL bulb exposures (when broken) and vaㄸines.

We also begin life with mercury passed down in utero.

🤱🏻If your baby has high levels of mercury, I’d pause on getting vaㄸines. See my recent write-up which includes interesting facts on childhood vaㄸines. This type of data only exists because of this “special” time.

💇🏻‍♀️If you took a hair mineral test and found you have high circulating mercury levels in the body, you may want to hold off on chelating.

⚠️There are several schools of thought with detoxing but always make sure the detox pathways are clear (liver and kidneys), and never ever chelate with amalgam fillings still in your teeth.

NEVER.

🚨Heavy metal detox is very bioindividual and complex that I don’t recommend getting heavy metal detox…
