Re: Selenium causes cold hands and feet and lower temp!
I continue on the selenium because I read in another forum (not CZ) that there was danger of taking the
Lugol's without selenium. The poster said it would "blow out" the thyroid. Whether that is true or not, I don't know. I am just covering my bases.
Actually, the selenium does help bind mercury to help carry it out of the body. I eat Brazil nuts when I have them, take a selenium supplement when I don't.
As far as the cold, that's transient. I think I asked Trapper one time if that was a metal detox and he said yes, but I am too lazy to try to find the post. Actually, the first time I painted the mesentery with ten drops, I got that cold again. Hadn't had it in a while. It is not a permanent lowering of body temperature, it is a transient sign of detox. When I get this cold, I try to be sure my bowels are super-open, or take something to flush what you are detoxing out quickly, so it will not retox.
Newport is the one who knows about the varieties of selenium. Maybe he will give you a better answer. For me, I do the best I can with the knowledge I have at the time, and don't try to be perfect. When I get more knowledge, I may change things, but basically I just listen to my body, and trust in God to put the information I need in front of me. And amazingly, it does come without too much effort!
