Selenium _Tung Oil

[Lavender-Blue]

I have read on a lot about the importance of Selenium with those of us who have hypothyroidism.

Which Selenium is recommended and what dosage?

Has anyone heard of Tung Oil Selenium?

[SewingBee]

Personally, I can't take it!

[Lavender-Blue in reply to SewingBee]

Oh, why is it that you can't take it,?

[SewingBee in reply to Lavender-Blue]

If I remember rightly it keeps me awake all night and makes me feel quite ill.

Thanks for sharing your experience.

Selenium l-selenomethionine or yeast bound selenium are recommended as they are the most absorbable. Avoid selenite and selenate forms.

200mcg is suggested when Hashi's is present, 100mcg is said to be a safe amount.

I have read that we should take a break from time to time, maybe have a month off when bottle runs out.

Some people like to test before supplementing, Cerascreen to a selenium test.

Not heard of tung oil selenium.

Thanks SeasideSusie for the information.

I have read on here that supplementing has made a difference for some people.
