nuts and seeds

[CeliacWarrier]

specifically styrian pumpkin for zinc and brazil nuts for selenium. although gluten free very difficult to find that are certified gluten-free so cross contamination is possibility. a couple brazil nuts gives more than what is required daily. i am newly diagnosed so any suggestions in this would be appreciated.

For pumpkin seeds, this should meet your needs. I get them at Costco. Certified gluten-free.

AS to Brazil nuts, you could go for those still in the shell. That is, if you don't mind the challenge of cracking them open.

duh, i never even thought about cracking them myself. thanks. i may have to resort to product like go raw but as general rule try to keep away from food grown in china because i had bad experience many yrs ago. i am not an ugly american but trust usa organic controls more.

I'm interested in where to get certified gluten-free cashews, walnuts, pecans, almonds, and sunflower seeds. The vast majority of nuts and seeds at CostCo are not labeled gluten-free. I get the pumpkin seeds that trents mentioned and they are pretty good.

I had a reaction to the already-shelled brazil nuts from CostCo though, even though they are labeled gluten-free. Not sure what was going on there. Good idea on getting the ones that are still in the shell.

I get mine from Nuts.com.  If I copied the link correctly, this should take you to their certified gluten free selections:

I used to buy from nuts.com but their prices have gotten pretty high.

Just received brazil nuts and they are absolutely delicious. Best ever and purchase will help preserve amazon rainforest and generate income for the local community. Why take a pill when 2 nuts more than takes care of selenium needs plus other nutrients.

Why take a pill

Food sourced is better.  But I have periods of anorexia so the pills guaranty that I have at least a sufficient baseline intake.  I as eat that nutrient reliably I stop supplementing. 

I buy Durham Deluxe Mixed Nuts at my local supermarket.  Apparently the Deluxe in the title indicates Brazil Nuts.

Over the last six months I've increased my iodine intake with drops of Liquid Iodine to 1625 mcg a day.  Since the US Tolerable Safe Upper Limit is 1100 mcg, for the purpose I am declaring myself Honorary Japanese.  Their Tolerable Safe Upper Limit for Iodine is 3000 mcg a day.  The results are insane.  Right eye vision returning, foot neurapathy improving, muscle tone and strength improving.  Overall, everything is getting better.  My quarterly bloods come up next week and my doctor told me she's testing for everything.  Should be interesting.

My vitamin D is 90 ng/ml from sun so I have stopped the 10,000 IU a day I have been taking for the past 10 years,  Another sign of healing from sufficient vitamins and minerals as part of my GFD diet.

Here's what I take most days:

• B1 250 mg
• B2 100 mg
• B3 500 mg
• B5 500 mg
• DHEA 200 mg
• Selenium 200  mcg
• Vitamin C 2000 mg
• Choline 500 mg
• Iodine 1625 mcg
