Bluefin tuna: Bluefin tuna is more likely to contain high mercury levels due to its long lifespan in comparison to other tuan, and its position as a top predator. Sustainably caught with pole and line (not nets that can trap birds, turtles, and dolphins) in the central or north Pacific ocean, this species is processed at partner facilities in Thailand, Vietnam, Morocco, Ecuador, Cape Verde, and Spain. However, Wild Planet is a California-based company recognized by Greenpeace for its sustainable practices and environmentalist mission. FADs are at the root of an unsustainable industry, driving the overfishing of tuna populations, and hindering the recovery of species like bigeye and yellowfin.’ Light - Have a job that involves long periods of sitting (office-based / driving) or are home-based and sitting for much of the day.

In an exclusive investigation, the Ecologist Film Unit reveals the impact of Indonesia's plans to privatise its entire 90,000 km coastline We agreed with Slimming World that we would remove the word Syn from our eating out, shopping and food lists. We will continue to advertise Syns on our recipes. If you are looking for a Syn value please visit www.slimmingworld.co.uk LOOKING FOR WEIGHT WATCHERS SMART POINTS? The research identified the use of fish aggregation devices (FADs) – manmade objects floated on the surface of the ocean to attract fish – as the driving factor behind the inconsistent products. The large aggregations of fish lured by the devices become easy prey for fishermen to draw a net around them and close it at the bottom – a method known as purse seining. When it comes to canned tuna, the terms "white" and "light" refer to different species of tuna. White tuna, also known as albacore tuna, is a larger species that tends to have a milder flavor and a firmer, flakier texture. It typically has a lighter color and higher fat content, making it richer and more buttery in taste. White tuna is often used in dishes where a meatier texture is desired, such as tuna steaks or salads. We only use fishing methods that support ocean health and the populations that depend on it. Our tuna, for example, are caught one fish at a time using 100% pole & line methods with no nets," says Shannon Daily, the Marketing Director of Wild Planet. "This allows us to target only the species we’re fishing for and thereby eliminate bycatch – that is, species caught unintentionally and then either harmed or killed by nets, lines or traps. This helps prevent overfishing that is threatening our oceans and ultimately our food supply. It also protects juvenile fish so they can grow and reproduce."

The contents of tinned tuna products from over twelve countries were analysed by Spanish marine research laboratory AZTI Tecnalia using genetic testing to identify which species were present in the tins. The highest number of inconsistencies were found in Greek, Spanish and Dutch brands.

He added that rising grocery prices are among the top five financial worries that consumers have, narrowly behind rising energy bills. Research shows that high street chains using 'dolphin-friendly' claim on tuna tins are misleading customers about damage to other marine wildlife including turtles Pregnant women, nursing mothers, and young children are advised to be more cautious about their consumption of high-mercury fish. Different species of tuna contain varying levels of mercury. Generally, larger and longer-lived tuna species tend to accumulate higher levels of mercury in their tissues. The tinned tuna industry is not only hoodwinking both consumers and retailers about the tinned tuna that lands in shopping baskets worldwide, it’s making them complicit in a trail of destruction’ said Greenpeace oceans campaigner Nina Thuellen.

Since Weight Watchers introduced the new Personal Points plan it is harder to calculate points. This means I can no longer offer exact WW Points for food lists. (I am working on the recipe part). HOW MANY CALORIES SHOULD I BE CONSUMING PER DAY? And savvy shoppers have been switching to own label lines as a way to "swerve" the full force of price increases. A spokesperson for Lidl told The Ecologist: ‘Following the report published by Greenpeace we are very concerned about their findings. We are currently working closely with our supplier to investigate this issue.’ I'm not totally satisfied with this response as they are assuring me without any evidence BUT... there is some fault on my part too.

Atlantic bluefin tuna could be the first widely eaten species to be banned from being traded internationally. Would it work, and would it set a useful precedent for other species? Nutrition facts: Consider the nutrition label, and notice nutrition factors like protein content, omega-3 fatty acids, and sodium. It's important to note that the health benefits of consuming fish, such as the omega-3 fatty acids, iodine, and protein they contain, should also be taken into account. Balancing the potential risks of mercury exposure with the nutritional benefits of fish is important. Nixe brand tuna, owned by German supermarket Lidl and sold throughout its UK stores, was one of thirteen worldwide brands identified during genetic testing as producing inconsistent and misleading products. It is crucial to remain aware about the presence of mercury in seafood, particularly if you are pregnant. Mercury, in high amounts in the diet, can have adverse effects on the nervous system, including brain development in infants and young children.

When we eat and drink more calories than we use up, our bodies store the excess as body fat. If this continues, over time we may put on weight. As a guide, an average man needs around 2,500kcal (10,500kJ) a day to maintain a healthy body weight. For an average woman, that figure is around 2,000kcal (8,400kJ) a day. Chunk tuna comes in "chunks" or smaller pieces of tuna, while solid tuna are larger pieces of tuna. It's all a matter of preference on which one to use for tuna fish sandwiches, tuna casseroles, and any other tuna recipe creations you desire.Inactive - Do very little exercise, going for the occasional walk (moderate pace, low intensity).
