I chose exposure to methyl mercury via fish consumption. People in the U.S. are mainly exposed to mercury when they eat fish and shellfish that contain methyl mercury. Almost all people have at least trace amounts of methyl mercury in their tissues, reflecting methyl mercury’s widespread presence in the environment through the consumption of fish and shellfish. My publlic health fact sheet expounds upon what methyl mercury is, individuals at high risk, a common source of exposure and supplemental information about it's health effects.
