Among the mineral salts, iron stands out.
Historical background:
Tuna fishing was already practiced in prehistoric times, as shown by the graffiti discovered in the Genovese cave in Levanzo, one of the Egadi islands.

Notes:
Tuna is significantly inadvisable in the diet of gouty and hyperuricemic due to the massive presence of purines.
