And I also want to share with you another way that mercury negatively impacts our health and that is that mercury will tend to concentrate in the area of our adrenal glands or pituitary gland and negatively impact our adrenals and our thyroid health as well.

So you don't want any of that. So I thought today I would be I would share the low levels of mercury list of fish so that you can start to make different choices in your grocery shopping.
