We can't find evidence that holds up here. Proponents are reasoning from mechanism or analogy rather than direct human data, and the most credible skeptics raise objections we can't dismiss.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.

i had a client once who had oppa which is a type of fish from the grocery store and he said oh this opal was on sale and lo and behold he'd been eating a lot of oppa that week his heavy metals were off the charts in simply a week from this acute exposure i've seen it in clients who were eating wild salmon three to four times a week they had elevated levels of mercury these are not good things guys so this is another corollary question that i get sometimes what about fish on an animal-based diet my answer is theoretically fish is great i don't think you need the omega-3 fatty acids from fish i addressed that last week in the ask me anything podcast where i talked about the importance and the availability of getting omega-3 fatty acids from room and animal fat but fish are also quite contaminated with heavy metals be aware of this even if you're eating wild salmon it has significantly more mercury than you're going to get in beef or chicken or lamb or turkey and this is going to accumulate in your body if you're doing things like tuna buyer beware that's a big problem mahi-mahi grouper even those fish have moderate to high levels of heavy metals and the benthic fish too the shellfish the mussels the scallops the clams the lobsters the crabs a lot of these things sink to the bottom and accumulate in those fish
I've seen it in clients who were eating wild salmon three to four times a week they had elevated levels of mercury these are not good things guys so this is another corollary question that I get sometimes what about fish on an animal- based diet my answer is theoretically fish is great I don't think you need the omega-3 fatty acids from fish I addressed that last week in the ask me anything podcast where I talked about the importance and the availability of getting omega-3 fatty acids from ruminant animal fat but fish are also quite contaminated with heavy metals aware of this even if you're eating wild salmon it has significantly more Mercury than you're going to get in beef or chicken or lamb or turkey and this is going to accumulate in your body if you're doing things like tuna buy or beware that's a big problem mahim Mahi grouper even those fish have moderate to high levels of heavy metals and the Ben thck Fish too the shellfish the muscles the scallops the clams the lobsters the crabs a lot of these things sink to the bottom and accumulate in those fish so this is not a good recipe for long-term once a week sure a couple times a month no problem more than that I think
