Dr. Olree explains:" In Minerals for the Genetic Code" about the different in Seleniums.I encourage everyone to read some short links regarding Selenium.

The average dietary intake for

adults in the U.S. has been found to range from 80 to 110 mcg/day.

Because of food distribution

patterns in the U.S., people living in areas with low soil selenium avoid

deficiency because they eat

foods produced in areas with higher soil selenium.

Supplements - Selenium

supplements are available in several forms. The best form is

selenomethionine, an organic

form of selenium that occurs naturally in foods, which is about 90%

absorbed. Selenomethionine and

selenium-enriched yeast, which mainly supply selenomethionine,

are also available as

supplements. Sodium selenite and sodium selenate are inorganic forms of

selenium. The consumer should

be aware that some forms of selenium yeast on the market contain

yeast plus mainly inorganic

forms of selenium. Both inorganic and organic forms of selenium can be

metabolized to selenocysteine

by the body and incorporated into selenoenzymes, although too

much inorganic selenium will cause type 2 diabetes.

either. Just wanted to clarify that. Bonnie

Not Steph, but I've done a ton of research regarding

alternative cancer treatment and I've never seen anything regarding selenium

issues with skin cancer. Even mainstream medicine acknowledges that selenium

can have a huge impact on cancer, in particular lung, prostate and colorectal

cancers. The only warnings I have ever heard about are large doses over an

extended time can be toxic. However I can tell you that we had a member on here

years ago who cured himself of cancer using selenium, I can't remember what

type he used but I do remember it was a vetinary form of the supplement.
