now the suggestion upper limit.
Oh, thank you so much Mrs. D for this "warning". My multivitamin has Selenium (as Sodium Selenate) 55mcg and says that its 79% of daily allowance. Now, I think I will stop Selenium. The only reason why I started on it recently - it says it protects the liver. I am concerned that with all the medications and supplements I am taking, I would want to protect my liver.
