How big you grow is largely determined by how much zinc is in your diet to enable manufacturing protein in the body for new body tissue. meat is high in zinc<BR/>zinc is also involved in a healthy immune system and in detoxification.Waynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13582374966270259947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25570835.post-1150525906463877002006-06-17T18:31:00.000+12:002006-06-17T18:31:00.000+12:00i'm not sure of the doses in things like anti dand...i'm not sure of the doses in things like anti dandruff shampoo and foot preparations but remember daily requirements for selenium are 0.2 thousandths of a thousandth gram a day! any ingestion of more than a milligram a day is potentially toxic,Waynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13582374966270259947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25570835.post-1150525564430495832006-06-17T18:26:00.000+12:002006-06-17T18:26:00.000+12:00http://www.public-health.uiowa.edu/baecps/factshee...http://www.public-health.uiowa.edu/baecps/factsheets/selenium.pdfWaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13582374966270259947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25570835.post-1150453282517380172006-06-16T22:21:00.000+12:002006-06-16T22:21:00.000+12:00Wayne,I certainly do not want t put readers wrong;...Wayne,<BR/>I certainly do not want t put readers wrong; would you have any links or references about selenium in shampoo that readers can refer to? I assumed that antidandruff shampoo was quite safe to use as compared to some of the medicines and ointments that are prescribed for persistent fungal infections. One would have thought that occasional use of a shampoo would be ok. That is interesting about moves to zinc. Zinc oxide is a traditional healing cream and i gues it would have similar qualities to those of selenium and copper.<BR/>Any detail about these would be appreciated.Gary Mollerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12046982185323982734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25570835.post-1150095079475606022006-06-12T18:51:00.000+12:002006-06-12T18:51:00.000+12:00supplemental selenium and the selenium used in ext...supplemental selenium and the selenium used in external chemical substances such as anti dandruff shampoos are chemically totally different, the selenium in the shampoo is pure poison and kills the fungas by the fact that it is poison, it is absorbed into the skin and into the blood acting as a poison on the body, the nutritional supplement are chemically bound and intert on sunsumption until they are process by the body in cheical reactions to use the selenium as an anti oxidant, selenium as an element on its own is extremely poisonous in even trace amounts, hence its ability to be a potent anti oxidant when correctly combined in a nutritional supplement, a lot of skin treatments have moved to zinc instead of selenium as it is less toxic to teh body, but still toxic in its own right again! Nutritional Supllements containing selenium are extremely beneficial to your health if taken in accordance with instructions as they are designed to be utilised correctly by the body.Waynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13582374966270259947noreply@blogger.com
