Mr. Health
Mercury or Hg (the accepted chemical notation) is and can be very and for your health. It has been known to cause permanent brain damage and reduced nervous system function.
According to some doctors, fish now contain higher traces of mercury than that of a decade ago. Traces of mercury get absorbed through the fish's gills and some of this harmful metal may get eaten by you!
According to an article in Reader's Digest, one patient with dangerously high mercury levels was able to lower her mercury level after just a few short weeks. Now fish is still healthy for you. so don't be afraid of it but if you eat more than 1 or 2 servings of fish a week; you should seriously consider cutting down.
