Eating too much tuna
Common Questions and Answers about Eating too much tuna
eating
I think you should be Ok. I've been loving shrimp lately and I eat fish too. As long as it's not high in Mercury. . Which sometimes Tuna is but I heard white tuna in water is good. So I wouldn't worry. Omega 3s are good for baby.
Maybe 3 times a week max.
It's not too much medication, but have you been tested for acid reflux? Have you had an upper endoscopy and been checked for H. pylori?
Uncooked meats, raw sushi, unheated deli meats are a no-no, due to the risk of listeria. It's recommended to eat about 8 oz of fish per week, but not shark, mackeral, albacore tuna, and a few others that contain high levels of mercury. Salmon, light chunk tuna, shrimp, talapia are just a few that can be eaten during pregnancy. Soft cheeses, like brie or the queso fresco, and blue-veined/moldy cheeses, like some blue cheeses, aren't recommended for consumption.
I know you aren't supposed to have too much fish, but all I have been craving is tuna or fish sticks. I have been trying to limit how much I eat per week. Is this normal or what?
Yeah, it could be psychological, since there's nothing in tuna that any other food wouldn't do for hypoglycemia as long as it wasn't sugar. Beans, for example, are great for hypoglycemia, and all proteins are as much protein as tuna. Eating just one food isn't healthy, eating too much dairy -- the cheese -- probably isn't healthy. And tuna is full of mercury, whatever your doc says.
It is good!
It is ok to have some tuna. You shouldn't eat it every day because it unknown how much mercury is in it. But tuna doesn't have enough in it to be bad with only eating it sometimes.
I agree, better just ask your doctor, he's not going to give you hardly anything for a list my doctor isn't too worried about deli meats, hot dogs, tuna, etc, it's all more or a precaution than it is a strict rule, ya know? You'll be fine!
I try to eat smaller meals however still feel very bloated and full after everything I eat. I eat normal amount not too little or too much. Baby is at 29 weeks a bit bigger than the charts. It feels like I should eat a lot less. To not have a massive baby and to not feel the heavy bloating after eating. Any opinions?
My dr said its fine as long as it's 6-12 oz a week. I don't plan on eating it that much but I haven't had fish in forever! And I'm 37 weeks. Any of you eaten small amounts of fish and been ok?
If you recognize that eating a little too much healthy food continues to build up your fat reserves without limit, then yes it is bad. There's needs to be balance, and an awareness of when you've been eating too much (if only through your belt and pants feeling tighter), so that you know you must cut back.
