3. Cottage Cheese
A single cup of cottage cheese contains about 22 mcg of selenium. This amount is about a third of the recommended daily value. In addition to offering selenium, cottage cheese also provides a great source of calcium and protein. If you are on a low sodium diet, there are low sodium versions available.
Cottage cheese can be used as a snack or as a side dish for almost any meal. It is important to consider the fat content of cottage cheese if you are following a low-fat diet. Adding some fruit to your cottage cheese is a great way to get some more nutrition from your snack. As with anything that you are consuming, checking the nutritional label is a good idea as each type of cottage cheese may have varying amounts of the nutrients that you are looking for. Also, everything that you eat should be in moderation in order to get the most variety of nutrients in your diet.
