I get them in the bulk bins at a co-op, but I'm pretty sure Whole Foods also carries them if you have one of those near you. I think some grocery stores may also carry them in the baking aisle, same place you might find chopped pecans, walnuts etc. They're usually quite expensive (mine were $9 a pound), but don't let that deter you. 1 or 2 a day is all you need for a full day's supply of selenium. A pound should last at least 60 days! Hope that helps.

Thank you! It's been an interesting journey so far and every day I feel more in control of my diet and nutrition. And everyone here has been so nice!
