520 _a"Forty states have issued advisories about eating fish that may have high levels of mercury in their tissues. As recently as last July [2001], Massachusetts public health officials warned young women and children under 12 to stop eating 'most' fish caught in state rivers and lakes, and to avoid certain seafood. Tuna was on the list, as was swordfish." (E MAGAZINE) This article addresses the dangers of mercury, a "persistent heavy metal...that accumulates in water and in the tissues of humans, fish and animals" which "can permanently damage the brain, kidneys, and developing fetuses.".
