Description

Selenium is a mineral that acts as an antioxidant. Though it’s used for a number of bodily functions, you only need to obtain small amounts of it through your diet.
A one-ounce (28-gram) serving of Brazil nuts will provide you with more than 100% of the RDI for selenium.
Selenium deficiency is rare and usually only occurs in certain disease states.
For example, one study found that people undergoing hemodialysis for kidney disease were selenium deficient.
When these people ate just one Brazil nut a day for three months, their blood selenium levels returned to normal, and the nuts had an antioxidant effect in their blood.
Brazil nuts can also reduce cholesterol levels. What’s more, they may reduce oxidative stress and improve the function of blood vessels in obese teenagers.
Finally, Brazil nuts may reduce inflammation in both healthy people and those undergoing hemodialysis.
