Illinois Academy of
Nutrition & Dietetics Henry, IL Press Room: Room C303 Phone: (309) 364-2919 FOR RELEASE FEBRUARY 28, 2017 Media Contact: Cheryl Fitzgerald Phone: (309) 364-2919 media@eatrightillinois.org A Sweet Spot for Selenium Intake CHICAGO - The micronutrient Selenium (Se) plays a not so micro role as an essential trace element and antioxidant for human health. Much research has focused on Se’s role in hyper- or hypothyroidism but a recent study in the Nutricion Hospitalaria journal turns the spotlight from the association of Se status with thyroid hormones to anthropometric values in dyslipidemic patients. Dyslipidemia is an elevation of plasma cholesterol, LDL, triglycerides, or a combination of these, or low HDL levels. It is a condition not to be taken lightly as it can lead to cardiovascular disorders. According to the CDC, only 1 out of 3 adults with high LDL cholesterol has the condition under control. Eighty-three dyslipidemic patients participated in the study at the National Institute of Cardiology, who were between the ages of 45 and 85 years old and on lipid lowering medications(statins, ezetimibes, fibrates). This group of 83 dyslipidemic and hypertensive men and women consisted of 3 hyperthyroid individuals, 3 hypothyroid individuals, 2 chronic kidney disease individuals, and the group also had 1 individual with a malignancy. The cross-sectional study took place in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil between July 2011 and June 2012. Questionnaires were used to obtain information regarding medication use, physical activity levels, and dietary habits. Lab tests were conducted for thyroid hormone levels, lipid profiles, and Se levels in the blood. Anthropometric information such as waist circumference (WC), BMI, and waist-to-height ratio were also measured. Normal range of Se concentrations are between 95 and 150 ug/L. The Dietary Reference Intake (DRI) for Selenium is 55 ug/day for both adult men and women. The participants with the highest Se concentrations between 95-122 ug/L were found to have the highest WC and BMI. The 61.5% of the patients with low Se concentrations and intake below DRI also had higher waist circumference and BMI. The range of Se concentration that may be “just right” according the the study’s results is 80-94 ug/L. The participants with Se levels in this range had the lowest BMI and WC.
2.
The researchers discussed
that the low Se dietary intakes, lowering effects of statin treatments, and increased cytokines from visceral fat reduced Se plasma concentrations and increased weight but other human studies they referenced showed a diet rich in Se resulted in weight gain. They concluded that those with dyslipidemia have low Se intake and high occurrence of obesity. Further research on the topic should be investigated. Registered Dietitians play a key role in nutritional health. Jennie Smith, MS RD and IAND board member states that “Selenium is essential and plays such an important role in antioxidant and thyroid function in our body but there is quite a narrow range in which deficiency can occur or toxicity can develop.” In effort to help dyslipidemic patients in weight control, it may be valuable for RDs to monitor Se dietary and supplemental intake so their patients hit a sweet spot range. Se rich foods include spinach, garlic, asparagus, brazil nuts, yellowfin tuna, halibut, sardines, beef, turkey, chicken, and eggs. Cheryl Fitzgerald is a Dietetic Intern at Dominican University. She is an IAND member and is completing a dietetic rotation in the media department of the organization. She loves spreading the word on new research and development. Contact the author Cheryl Fitzgerald at media@eatrightillinois.org or by phone at (309) 364-2919. ### All registered dietitians are nutritionists – but not all nutritionists are registered dietitians. The Academy’s Board of Directors and Commission on Dietetic Registration have determined that those who hold the credential registered dietitian (RD) may optionally use "registered dietitian nutritionist" (RDN) instead. The two credentials have identical meanings. The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics is the world's largest organization of food and nutrition professionals. The Academy is committed to improving the nation's health and advancing the profession of dietetics through research, education and advocacy. Visit the Academy at eatright.org.
