/CAUTION: Blood levels of Selenium are not a very reliable measurement as the levels
/ of Selenium are what counts. If you suspect selenium is your problem the get
/your Veterinarian to take a muscle biopsy and check the true level of selenium.
/I have seen many low blood levels that meant nothing as well as normal and high
/ blood levels that actually had low muscle readings. Blood levels actually
/measure consumption of selenium at the time.
I received this recently from a respected veterinarian on another list. Yet another piece of information on the selenium levels/supplementation. I didn't even know that a muscle biopsy was an option. Now I feel more lost then ever.
