Cornfed, from my background in physiology, I have learned that about 90% of the time, cravings happen because your body needs something that is contained in the food you are craving!. It doesn't matter if you are pregnant, female, a hockey fan, etc!.!.!. Tuna contains a lot of L-Tryptophan(e), an amino acid that relaxes the body!. It's the same stuff in turkey that makes you sleepy!. You ight want to ask an MD for an opinion too!.!. it's probably nothing, but having a doctor tell you it's nothing sis much better than worrying if it is or isn't something to be concerned with!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I agree with Avalon!. Your body is missing something in the
nutrition line and tuna has it and that is why you are craving it!.
I doubt very much you are going to gain weight eating water
packed tuna!. It is very good for you and has lots of Omega
3s in it which is very important!. Once your body is satisfied
and has what it needs the craving will stop!. (unlike chocolate cravings which never stop!!) I had a similiar experience once with eggs!. All I wanted to eat was poached eggs and had them every night for dinner for 5 days!. Then I didn't want them anymore so go figure!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well I have to seriously disagree with these people!. 2-3 cans a day can increase your risk to mercury poisoning!. Your menopausal and you need nutrition to help you get thru this stage of your life!. I suggest reading about it from a nutritional stand point!. Maybe You Are WHat You Eat by Gillian Mc Keith!. Eat lots of food rich in zinc like raw pumpkin seeds!.

Your only supposed to eat one can of tuna a week because of mercury!. Your eating way more than that silly!. !.!.!. I am so digging my 40s LOL My favorite saying now is "what the heck!.!.!.where the hell did that come from! " Usually im looking in the mirror!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Your body is probably craving the protein!. or Omegas!. Go for it, just drink plenty of water!.

Don't worry about tuna in oil, it is vegetable oil after all!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

tuna is good for you , no you won't gain weight just don't eat bread !.your body must be lacking something that tuna has in it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
