In some cases, supplementation of selenomethionine (a type of selenium) may result in better conversion of T4 to T3, sometimes resulting in lowered cholesterol levels and raised thyroid levels within the body.

What is selenosis?

High blood levels of selenium (>100 mcg/dL) can result in a condition called selenosis. Symptoms of selenosis include gastrointestinal upsets, hair loss, white blotchy nails, garlic breath odor, fatigue, irritability, and mild nerve damage. The Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of Sciences has set a tolerable upper intake level (UL) for selenium at 400 micrograms per day for adults to prevent the risk of developing selenosis. Selenium toxicity is rare in the United States. The few reported cases have been associated with industrial accidents and a manufacturing error that led to an excessively high dose of selenium in a supplement. Brazil nuts contain very high amounts of selenium (68 to 91 mcg per nut), so limit yourself to one nut per day. how do you get rid of selenosis?

What is the effect of low protein content in beef and dairy cattle ration?

Nitrogen deficiency will be detrimental to a bovine's health, and not enough protein during a time when needed will result in downer cows and deadstock. Protein is very important for all cattle, but particularly for lactating dairy and beef cattle and growing calves because there is a huge demand for it in these animals. Calves without adequate protein will be stunted in growth. Lactating cows on a low-protein diet will put a lot of their bodily reserves into milk and not produce much milk at all. You will find lactating cows lose a LOT of weight to the point where they will get emaciated and die if you don't switch their diet soon.
