    look at his body? does he have any build? my guess is no. Along with healthy omegas it's a great source of clean protien..

    This guy is a complete moron. Tuna is a great source of protein & EFAs. There are a lot of guys who use tuna as their main protein source in half their meals.

    Most all fish is a great source of protein. Tuna is one of the cheapest also. A can of tuna in water can easily be found for around $.40 per can or less. Back when I was super poor I'd eat 2 cans of tuna and some frozen (microwaved) veggies for a cheap, easy, quick, and healthy meal. Now that I have a job that pays a little better I opt for the tuna in a pouch. That stuff with a little Tabasco is awesome. Mark

    He's not a source of reliable information. The only thing useless here is his advice.

    That's about as basic as you can get. I'd question anything else he has told you.

    Need more is my workout buddy....The guy said that tuna is the worst source of protien because of "low bio-availabiliy"...I figured he was full of shat too! Worst thing is, he's a local source! Kinda makes one a little hesitant when doing business with him. The guy is pretty big though...I wouldn't wanna mess with him! Still...Need More and I will be sure to call him an ass! Thx all!

    The back of my tuna label says 28 grams of protein per can.

    Just because he's a source doesn't mean he has to be knowledgable about nutrition. Usually quite the opposite holds true, as one's focus is in the entirely wrong direction.
