The human body is an amazing thing and is always repairing itself given the proper nutrition etc. I am an organic gardener and we eat as healthy as possible. Please read every label at the grocery store and you would be surprised at what the food industry is giving you.


I would not take selenium before a blood test. The American diet is already way over what is recommended. Too much selenium can cause PN. I can do permanent damage. If you take selenium, you may be in extreme danger of many problems.
