Consumer Reports Magazine Recommends Pregnant Women Limit Tuna Consumption
(Kaiser Daily Healthy Policy June 7th, 2006)

The not-for-profit group Consumers Union in the July issue of Consumer Reports magazine recommends a tuna-free diet for pregnant women, the Chicago Tribune reports. The recommendations are based on data released by FDA and a Tribune investigative series published last year on the amount of mercury in fish (Hawthorne, Chicago Tribune, 6/5).
