Selenium Rich Foods

There is interesting new evidence that eating foods rich in trace mineral selenium can improve moods. Psychologists David Benton and Richard cook, at University College in Swansea, recently discovered that people eating the least selenium were the most anxious, depressed and tired, and generally felt much better when they got adequate selenium. The researchers concluded that a subtle selenium deficiency, not enough to cause the disease, puts a curb on mood. Thus, correcting the slight deficiency would normalize the mood, but getting more of the mineral does not boost mood further. Rich vegetarian sources of selenium are garlic, onions, tomatoes and milk. Selenium influences mood presumably due to its antioxidant power.
