Guest guest Posted January 15, 2004 Report Share Posted January 15, 2004 Mercury poisoning exists in all fish that are farmed outside as well as ocean and fresh water fish and shell fish. The reason to why...Mercury is a byproduct of major coal burning/ oil burning utility companies around the world ...they release gasses/smut into the air which mix in with the winds and rains and fall into our oceans and fresh water lakes and ponds...therefore producing untold amounts of mercury which is eaten by fish and other etables. There is an article on the interent about how the federal government put out a warning to pregnant women and children to not eat tuna fish because of the amount of mercury toxicity ...very interesting article to say the least ...but this is a known fact and the government has not stopped us from eating fish ...which is in the long run deadly!
