[cancercured] Re: For Arlyn---Selenium not necessary-Raw Food?

Hi, Walter.

Thanks for pointing out that selenium is an element. I don't know
what happens to it, but I know shelled Brazil nuts lose a great deal
of selenium when they are shelled/processed, and I know that when
they are yellow instead of white they have lost significant selenium.

Here is a link that gives a great deal of useful information,
including, toward the bottom, that beans, when cooked, lose 60% of
their selenium content:

And here is another link that one may have to paste into their
browser or type into their browser. I shows that many different kinds
of foods lose significant selenium when cooked.

I am not disagreeing with you about selenium being an element. I am
merely saying that cooking does diminish selenium content for some
reason/somehow:
