The top 10 everyday foods containing selenium are:
No, blueberries do not contain selenium. Selenium is typically found in Brazil nuts, organ meats, seafood, and some seeds.
Selenium is an element. Elements don't contain compounds.
Selenocysteine is the amino acid that contains selenium. It is incorporated into proteins during the translation process via a specific codon and tRNA. Selenium plays a role in antioxidant defense and thyroid hormone metabolism.
Plant foods are the major sources of selenium. Brazil nuts are the best natural source (100 grams of nuts provide about 1917 µg of selenium and 3,485% of recommended daily intake). NOTE: You should eat no more than one Brazil nut per day because of their very high selenium content, which can cause toxicity if you eat too much. Other good sources include sunflower seeds, macaroni, crimini mushrooms, and whole grains. The content of selenium in food depends on the selenium content of the soil where plants are grown. For example, soils in the high plains of northern Nebraska and the Dakotas have very high levels of selenium, while soils in some parts of China and Russia have very low amounts of selenium. Likewise, the selenium content of foods can vary. For example, the U.S. Department of Agriculture Food Composition Database lists the selenium content of Brazil nuts as 544 mcg of selenium per ounce, but values from other analyses vary widely.
Selenium dioxide (SeO2) is the most widely used selenium compound in industry. It is used as an oxidising agent in drug and other chemical manufacture, a catalyst in organic syntheses, and an anti-oxidant in lubricating oils.
