Tip: Eating tuna once or twice a week poses no health risk for healthy adults. However, avoid eating it more frequently because tuna--both canned and fresh--contains high levels of mercury that can cause chronic fatigue and memory loss in adults. Mercury can also harm an unborn child's developing nervous system. If you are pregnant, considering pregnancy, or nursing, it's best to avoid tuna.
