Abstract
⺠14% of participants had a blood mercury concentration above 40 nmol/L. ⺠Regression analyses were performed after using multiple imputation. ⺠Consumption of tomato products, a proxy for lycopene intake, was negatively associated with mercury levels. ⺠Consumption of seal meat was positively associated with mercury levels. ⺠Age and breastfeeding duration were also positive predictors of mercury levels.
