Your body will accumulate mercury over time, but apparently it is possible for your body to get rid of it. I found a detoxification method on Dr. Mercola’s web site which sounds as if it is for someone with a very high level of mercury in their system. I think that for most of us it would be sufficient to simply limit or eliminate our intake of the problem fish and continue to follow a low carb diet. You can search Mercola's site or just do a little research on the Web for more info.

This news really bothers me because I love tuna, especially albacore. Boy, it doesn't sound to me as if our environment is doing very well. Now we can't eat the fish.
