This product contains 1 mg per drop. The highest the FDA recommends is .400 mcg a day. 1 mg =1000 mcg. If you take from 4-10 drops you are taking 4000 to 10000 mcg of selenium as opposed to 400 tops FDA says. I got selenium toxicity from following this protocol.-rashes, pain, whole body hurting, throat red, confusion, etc. Be careful.
******* Response to Review ********** If you prefer to remain below the FDA recommended intake then you should only take a drop every other day, per usage recommended on the bottle. Lipid (fat) bound selenium does not need to be taken daily. Our experience, and Revici's data illustrates that this form of selenium can be stored in the body. This is unlike water-soluble vitamins, like Vitamin C. The nutritional dosage on the bottle is 1 drop. Selenium at this dosage is considered Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS). That said, many users with therapeutic goals choose to exceed the FDA recommendations. As with any supplement - how much you take is your choice. We advise against taking large amounts (more than a drop a day) of any supplement for an extended period of time (more than 2 weeks). Reduce or discontinue use if you have issues.
