Time to research tuna metabolism, feeding habits, hormones, etc? Maybe search for "tuna highest, superior, or whatever ... while filtering out all the marketing hits". Maybe there's a website explaining how to search for obscure knowledge while avoiding all the marketing hits.
I assume you've ruled out "abnormally large meal" as a factor. How quickly does the reduction in symptoms start? The comment about a small amount of liquid makes it sound quick.
Here's a suggestion: try just sniffing the liquid, to see whether that triggers a response. If not that, try swishing the fluid around your mouth before spitting it out, to see whether the effect doesn't require travel further down the digestive tract. I did that with cumin, and found that it didn't require swallowing.
Ah, the excitement of science!
Sorry didn't see this post, You reminded me I should also look into feeding habits that may differ in the. So far from what I have dug up nothing stands out that I haven't rued out. I can't find much on hormones found in the meat of them at all or any specific hormones to tuna. Tuna tastes distinctly different than swordfish which is most similar and I haven't found any fish that tastes just like tuna before, it's possibly a compound in the meat that is inducing that unique flavor. I have ruled out the large meal thing, I can eatall I want of anything or any other seafood and this doesn't happen. In fact there might be a clue in the fact that shellfish and things like clams/oysters don't have any effect on me like fish does in any amount consumed.
I should try sniffing it and just swishing the boiled juice from the same amount of tuna in my mouth and see what happens. It is an extremely quick onset so barely any digestion has begun at all when it starts.

It's been a couple days since I have eliminated supplements with additives besides rice flour which I'm nonreactive to. I've also completely removed tortilla chips and am now occasionally snacking on rice cakes plain with salt instead. I do feel even better and I'm not sure exactly what did it though besides that I started getting a bit better when I removed my old methyl-b12 supplement that had sweeteners/additives/external cherry flavoring in them whatever that stuff is made of. so something I removed seem to overall improve everything but nothing specific. Last night was my last shift at my old job where they replaced the computer systems a while over a month back that made the hole "hot head/brain burn" thing worse and post removal of the cluster of things I did it was somewhat less of an effect which I think indicates was some persistent elevation in mast cell mediators or some other metabolite of something induced by higher EMF level exposure and certain ingested triggers. That symptom cluster induced I noticed puts a stop to excitory signalling in my brain and interrupts almost all processes going on in a lot of signalling systems in general whatever it is. Should add what I mean specifically is that when the specific brain burn thing from triggers is occurring it seems to block dopamine loop, serotonin, hormonal as it will also shut down my sex drive and reduce ability, and endorphin signalling to a significant degree. So it seems to be a highly toxic metabolite something is producing in response to a specific trigger set. Another interesting note is that though gluten can make me feel more fatigued, it doesn't do this specific thing. Gluten for some reason despite being able to compromise my immune system temporarily as I get more susceptible to flu like symptoms after consumption doesn't induce the brain burn signal stopping effect, if anything it combats it somewhat but has a reaction of it's own in my system as if 2 pathogenic loads are actually be fueled and one suppresses the metabolites of the other and compete for control. That would be very interesting if it's the case.

edit 9/23 - Good thing you asked me to try the swishing in mouth thing with the broth from the tuna, it's orally reactive at small amounts (think like a shot glass or two's worth). Interesting thing about this, I was in the middle of a POIS episode and the day after I ate gluten which makes it far worse and prolongs the symptoms as well as gives me increased autism like symptoms. The initial mouth rinse of the liquid cut through it all in minutes without even touching the digestive system which is very confusing to me as I don't know what that could mean. I also had dry mouth to an extent all day as a result of the POIS episode and gluten post-POIS which is also a solid repeatable for me and this also stopped that. Maybe it's reducing a specific type of neuroinflammation or combating a toxin the spreads up the head/brain from the guts. I might even be able to make this sustainable by making and sealing the juice in the fridge and having a little every day. Though this isn't very helpful without realizing what is actually going on here. Though the dry mouth reduction may imply it's active against some kind of infection.
