Want to know if your tuna is a sustainable choice? Keep these three things in mind:
-
MSC Certification: Check if the tuna is MSC-certified. This label guarantees that the fish is caught in an environmentally responsible way, with proper quota agreements to prevent overfishing.
-
Fishing Method: Pole-and-line fishing is the most sustainable way to catch tuna. Fish are caught one by one, minimizing bycatch of other species. Other methods, like longline and purse seine, can have a bigger impact, especially if no bycatch prevention measures are in place.
-
Origin and Species: Check where the fish comes from and what species it is. This helps you better understand how sustainable your choice really is.

If you're pregnant, it's best to avoid tuna for now. Don't worry, you can still enjoy the health benefits of fish! For example, choose smoked Norwegian salmon or anchovies (both properly heated) twice a week, or enjoy wild Sockeye salmon (properly heated) once a week. This way, you'll still get those valuable omega-3 fatty acids.
In almost all cans of tuna, a bit of salt is added for flavor. But for those who need to watch their salt intake, that can be tricky. That's why we've developed a tuna variant with no added salt. This way, everyone can enjoy our tuna! Keep in mind, though, that the fish itself contains a small amount of natural salt, so it's not completely salt-free.
