i eat a handful (about 16) brazil nuts during rounds. During

chelation, selenium can help to displace copper which can increase on

ALA. Also balancing zinc/copper ratios can help if you're treating

autism.

I ate them but soak them before consuming. My prob is that selenium,

its on the high side. I love them but dont try to consume them too

often. If you are low, eat for both of us.

Andy's Advice has been to stick to two (2) brazil nuts per day. He

has pointed out that selenium can be quite toxic, and so you want to

make sure not to over-consume it. I'm guessing that's good advice,

particularly for toxic people who tend not to excrete excessive metals.

Hi,

For those who supplement selenium, does anyone have any advice on

substituting brazil nuts for selenium? They have like 500 mcg selenium

per oz so it seems like an easy way to make up for what I need.

Just curious.

Thanks,

> Thanks; that makes sense. They are awfully high in selenium. I know

What testing shows high selenium? If you are looking at a hair test

with deranged mineral transport, or any hair test that doesn't look

completely normal, then the levels of essential minerals are not

reliable.

I would go by how you and your kids respond to supplementation,

whether by pills or by eating brazil nuts.
