    Abstract:
    The diet is the main source of tin intake by man. Nearly all the tin in the UK diet is associated with canned food. Canned tomatoes, tomato products, pineapple, pears and similar fruits contain the highest concentrations of tin. Average dietary tin intakes in the UK are about 3 mg/day and have been falling since 1976.
