i’m going to recommend consuming one brazil nut  every single day as this part of your routine why  

because one brazil nut contains roughly between  68 to 91 micrograms of selenium and i’m going  

to talk about the importance of selenium we need  it it’s essential and many people are deficient  

the daily value of selenium that we need is about  55 micrograms so one nut would totally prevent a  

deficiency about 500 million to 1 billion people  on planet earth are deficient now there’s a lot  

more that have subclinical deficiencies and  selenium is a trace mineral it’s in the soils  

and the plant is supposed to absorb it if  the plant has the necessary microorganisms  

in the soil to make it available to the plant  and also if there’s selenium in the soil because  

selenium is not distributed evenly on the  earth’s crust there’s certain pockets it’s  

more on the coastline and it’s more associated  with soils that are rich in iodine and so we  

know a lot of soils are deficient in iodine  chances are they’re also deficient in selenium  

the other problem with selenium in the soil is  that when we fertilize the soil with npk which  

is a conventional type fertilizer the phosphorus  that’s the p will make selenium unavailable as  

well so unless you’re putting selenium in soil  chances are it’s not going to be in the soil  

for the plant to absorb and then you eat the  plant or you eat the animals eat the plants  

and you’re going to be deficient i’m also going  to recommend that you consume a organic brazil nut  

because you don’t know if they spray these nuts  after they harvest them but selenium is a very  

powerful antioxidant it can help oxidative damage  free radical damage and it is also a building  

block to make glutathione which is probably  the most powerful antioxidant in the body  

selenium also has the ability to decrease  something called tpo antibodies by 21 and that has  

to do with hashimoto’s the autoimmune condition  in thyroid problems slow thyroid conditions as in  

hypothyroidism this is why selenium is very very  important in decreasing those antibodies and also  

helping you convert from t4 to t3 so selenium  will also help protect against cancer  

because it prevents the damage to the dna of cells  especially the mitochondria it helps to support  

cardiovascular damage it helps the immune system  it helps the thyroid conversion like i just  

mentioned before it helps build glutathione which  i’ve talked about that’s why it’s good for the  

liver and it also will decrease the toxic effects  of mercury lead cadmium and other heavy minerals  

so because we live in a toxic environment  and most people are deficient in selenium  

you might want to consume one brazil  nut make sure it’s organic every day  

hey before you go real quick i have  a course entitled how to bulletproof  

your immune system it’s a free course  i want you to take it and here’s why  

here’s you here is your environment everyone  is focused on this over here avoiding  

your environment but what about here what about  strengthening your immune system that’s what’s  

missing this course will show you how to  bulletproof yourself and so you can tolerate  

and resist your environment much better by  strengthening your own immune system i put
