Is there any test or something approved to know how much mercury we have in the blood/body?
2 Answers
Dr. Ghassan Nawfal, Surgery - Acute mercury poisoning can be detected by measuring mercury levels in the blood. This test is usually done in a specialized laboratory since it is not commonly performed and has its limitations.

Is it fine to eat one can of tuna (130g) everyday? I'm worried about my mercury intake. What is the limit per day or per week?
Dr. Salim Saab, Otolaryngology (Ent) - One can of tuna a week to a maximum of 2 cans is enough because of mercury contamination.
