Guest guest Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 Terry, I get raw brazil nuts at Trader Joe's. I've also found them at Walmart in the produce section. TJ's has a better price though. Holly > > Holly, > Thanks for this informative article. I do like brazil nuts, but have trouble finding them raw or alone. Usually they are in a mixed nut thing and roasted and salted. I wouldn't mind finding them roasted if they were legal. Where do you get yours? > Thanks, > Terry > Re: was in hospital yesterday > > > When I make pecan butter, I throw a few Brazil nuts in there too. Just one little nut has a lot of selenium! Maybe selenium from food would work better for you than a supplement. Here's an article that mentions a study that compared eating one Brazil nut a day vs. taking a selenium supplement: http://www.skrewtips.com/2008/03/26/one-brazil-nut-a-day-is-all-the-selenium-you\ r-body-needs/http://www.skrewtips.com/2008/03/26/one-brazil-nut-a-day-is-all-th\ e-selenium-your-body-needs/> > > Holly > Crohn's > SCD 12/01/08 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
