Are there functional consequences of a reduction in selenium intake in UK subjects? [PDF]
, 2004 Dietary Se levels in the UK have fallen over the last 20 years and recent surveys indicate that average Se intakes are 30-40 microg/d, which is well below the current UK reference nutrient intake for adult men (75 microg/d) or women (60 microg/d ...
