SELENIUM

Updated: Apr 20





"Products rich in selenium are organ meats, mainly kidneys and sea foods, i.e. fish (mainly cod, mackerel and herring) and crustaceans. In plant products, the most selenium is found in legume seeds (mainly in peas and lentils), in garlic and nuts (mainly Brazil nuts)."


"Some of the best dietary sources of selenium include Brazil nuts, cod, shrimp, salmon, scallops, chicken, eggs, turkey, lamb, and shiitake mushrooms."


"Nutrients such as selenium, tyrosine, and iodine can support normal thyroid function, so should be considered."


"Selenium is a trace mineral, which means it’s present in small amounts in your body. It’s also an antioxidant, and it helps the body defend against viruses, which tend to be extra challenging when you’re fighting chronic Lyme disease."
