Dr. Richard Olree: Iodine and Selenium: the One-Two Punch

This modern-day mineral master will detail the little-known roles of iodine and selenium in life functions — crops, animals, humans. Often relegated into the realm of trace elements and not “majors,” science and observation tell a very different story for these essential elements. Iodine touches most everything in a living organism and has enemies both within the body and in the environment; it is particularly known for its anti-cancer properties. Selenium, long held to be a toxin, is a key trigger for tumor suppressing genes. These two vital minerals have similarly important roles in crops. Dr. Olree will “connect the dots” and bring obscure chemistry into actionable information.
