sorry, more grim news (soembody tell tigerkuma to fuck off!). its not as simple as eating fruits and vegies, eggs and meat. One serious drawback of Chinese fruits and vegies are the low levels of selenium, which has been linked to cancer prevention and general well-being. its nothing insidious or pollution -related (large areas of the US are also selenium deficient). Large parts of China just drew the short straw and are low in selenium. It can also be found in fish and tuna and meat that has been fed from selenium -enriched grains (needless to say, that’s not the case here in China). As I mentioned in an earlier post, i aint no expert, just had my coat pulled recently. A nutritionist buddy suggested if i take nothing else in China, i should at least take some fish oil supps (found a reliable source) to compensate for the lack of selenium here. For you lifters, its also been shown to be beneficial for muscle growth. And no, i don’t work in this field, and i will not try to sell you any.
