I buy yeast free selenium from Baldwin's -100mg, but of course can take2. Yeasty things don't agree with me. Or even better 2-3 brazil nuts daily. The chocolate ones count!

I get mine from simply supplements or-try healthspan-currently cheaper. Also I find that 200mcg every alternate day does me. Or cut one in half daily. It builds up in system over time. I noticed a great surge in energy levels and highly recommend it to anyone with fatigue whether hypo or not.

200mcg is probably way too high. Too much selenium is not advisable. I take 50mcg which is what the doctor advised.
