Selenium daily dosage
The NRV for selenium is 55µg. The average good diet may contain only 35µg of selenium per day, but a total daily intake of 100-200µg is recommended for optimal health. This means most people need to supplement with 120-180µg daily to achieve this.
Long-term total selenium intake from all sources should not exceed 400µg per day.
