Selenium content of Beijing foods was far higher than those in affected area of Keshan disease. The mercury, arsenic, and cadmium content of foods was below the National Allowance Standard except a few marine products.The selenium content of natural plant foods was positively correlated with its protein content (r=0.844, p
