As vegans are among the individuals with the lowest serum selenium levels, the randomized controlled SelVeg study aims to address the question of whether Brazil nuts could be an adequate source of selenium for diets potentially low in selenium. For this purpose, we will investigate in individuals with a vegan or omnivorous dietary pattern how a daily selenium intervention in the form of a food (here Brazil nut butter) or an over-the-counter selenium supplement affects the selenium status.
