hi guys we’re gonna talk about the

importance of this trace mineral called

selenium it’s necessary for three main

things that occur in the body number one

it’s necessary for a key enzyme called

glutathione peroxidase which basically

is one of the most important enzymes to

detoxify the liver and it protects your

cells against damage and stress so it’s

very important in liver detox okay

number two it helps in the conversion of

t4 to t3 so if you have a hypothyroid

condition especially Hashimoto’s I think

this is gonna help you you need to

really take more of this and you’re

gonna pricey great improvements just

with that alone also the third thing

that selenium does and it does a lot of

things but it helps you detoxify mercury

so even though you consume fish that’s

high in mercury there’s a lot more

selenium in fish especially tuna and

even salmon that will help you just

overcompensate and get rid of that

mercury and people with liver disease

like a fatty liver or cirrhosis which is

scar tissue you’ll see low levels of

selenium so apparently you need good

liver function to absorb the selenium

and also you need selenium to actually

repair the liver right okay so the

question is where you get felony ’m

Brazil nuts very very high in selenium

pork tuna oysters clams shrimp lamb beef

of course do grass-fed mushrooms seeds

and there’s a lot of other foods as well

but Brazil nuts are very very high in

selenium now if if you’re deficient you

may also notice your nail beds get white

okay and your muscles are weaker and

they’re tighter and they’re more painful

so these are just indications that you

also could be needing this and selenium

is very important in thyroid function
