Brazil nuts are extremely nutrient-rich and contain protein, copper, niacin, magnesium, fiber, vitamin E and selenium. Selenium is a powerful antioxidant that works to neutralize dangerous free radicals. A study at the University of Illinois even found that the high amounts of selenium in Brazil nuts may help prevent breast cancer.

I now crack 2-3 nuts a day to add to my diet. From my research, the selenium in freshly cracked nuts far exceeds the quantities in preshelled nuts one finds in the grocery.
Mmmmmm the best!

Brazil nuts were recommended by the clinical nutritionist at the oncology clinic where I go for chemo. I've always like Brazil nuts, so this was an easy food to add to my diet. The nuts I bought at the local grocery store were stale, so I looked online for a source of fresh nuts.
