Selenium

Selenium: A vital antioxidant, selenium acts with vitamin E to protect the immune system and maintain healthy heart function. It is needed for pancreatic function and tissue elasticity and has been shown to protect against radiation and toxic minerals. High levels of heart disease are associated with selenium-deficient soil in Finland and a tendency to fibrotic heart lesions is associated with selenium deficiency in parts of China. Best sources are butter, Brazil nuts, seafood and grains grown in selenium-rich soil.

Found in highest density in what is grown mostly in Bolivia – Brazil nuts.

Selenium was only officially recognized as an essential trace element for human health in 1990. However, since then, a great deal of publicity has been given to this trace element. Selenium can:

  1. protect against harmful exposure to the heavy metal, mercury
  2. help make a vital antioxidant, glutathione
  3. help regulate male hormones
  4. in males, support prostate function
  5. work synergistically with vitamin E
  6. enhance immune function

A deficiency of Selenuim can contribute to many conditions, including:

  1. dry skin
  2. dandruff
  3. the development of cataracts
  4. fatigue
  5. affect the efficiency of vitamin E utilization

In females, evidence suggests that it may reduce menopausal symptoms, such as hot flashes, resolve dandruff, and help maintain a more youthful appearance of the skin. The best food sources of selenium are seafoods, kidney, liver, most red meats, unrefined grains, and fruits and vegetables grown in selenium-sufficient soil. Easiest way to sort out malnutrition –  help your own mitochondria.

The current recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for selenium for healthy individuals assumes that you can access what you put in your mouth. And that what was set up decades ago is actually useful in this change of circumstances – those jabs of gene desecration. Otherwise given out in ‘well baby’ visits -they will not be as well afterwards ..and why? Heavy metals displace the nutrients being seen,,. And set a trial of destruction. Who cares? Not hose who do not see nutrition as healthy – or necessary. In fact – when you have a complete compliment of nutrients biologically available, the body is not longer in MAL nutrition and can easily function. My job as a natural health detective is to work out WHY taking supplements and eating well is not giving the result it used to . . .

What is BLOCKING healing? That is the new question

Selenium as a micro nutrient is essential for life. In the last minute – selenium is mentioned. Added to ALL baby formula
BUT – can you absorb it? Can ANYONE do so – especially when you look at the schedule of injectables all which have that which BLOCKS absorption – who cares? Obviously those whose scope of practice is not health enhancement – or even health maintenance . . apparent daily needs

  • Infants 10 mcg.
  • Children 20 mcg.
  • Males (11-18) 50 mcg.
  • Males (adults) 70 mcg.
  • Females 55 mcg.
  • Pregnant 65 mcg.
  • Lactating (1st 6 mos.) 75 mcg.

BUT what stops it getting to your cells?. . .

Selenium has many uses in the body – it is needed for healthy thyroid function (allowing the T4 to be broken down to T3 to be used) and for immune system to work well – as evidenced through supplementation for healing from cancer and HIV/AIDS. .

Metabolism (running of the entire body – see about 19 minutes in) is dependent upon it =  as is all immune system function – anti cancer/AIDS. Known as a major anti oxidant, Selenium is a component of the body’s master anti oxidant Glutathione. Glutathione has to be made to keep a body in top condition – so as an anti aging agent and as repair especially from oxidative stress. This in itself is a key reason for infertility.

Selenium is a key ingredient in making Glutathione along with magnesium and sulphur. To learn more on how you can easily recover from all problems and function as a vital being again – go to Glutathione information.

Found in Brewer’s yeast and wheat germ, liver, butter, fish (mackerel, tuna, halibut, flounder, herring, smelts) and shellfish (oysters, scallops, and lobster), garlic, whole grains, sunflower seeds, and Brazil nuts – If soil is selenium rich (and if modern farming methods and artificial fertilisers have not been used).

 Best way to ensure you know what to do about this is to invest looking after YOU and not seeking others. Taking a Selenium – or any supplement may not help. It used to – when I was a naturopath in the 70’s- through to early 2000’s. Then – it all started getting silly Bodies not working as they had. I doubt that I am the only natural therapist who is wondering what happened. Life. Life happened – we are under siege.
