Over-Consumption Of Selenium Can Increase Cholesterol

More death by antioxidants. (see, e.g., here, here and here)

"A new study from the University of Warwick has discovered taking too much of the essential mineral selenium in your diet can increase your cholesterol by almost 10%.

Selenium is a trace essential mineral with anti-oxidant properties. The body naturally absorbs selenium from foods such as vegetables, meat and seafood. However, when the balance is altered and the body absorbs too much selenium, such as through taking selenium supplements, it can have adverse affects."

Oops.

Won't stop Whore Foods from selling this stuff, though.
