Selenium is an essential trace element. It is found in all body cells and is vital for the human organism. The body cannot produce selenium itself, so it must be ingested daily in sufficient quantities through diet. The selenium content in plant foods always depends on the nutrient composition of the soil. The soils in Europe are rather poor in selenium. Therefore, animal foods are the better sources of selenium in Europe.
