Are there any foods in this database that contain molybdenum and selenium?
Nutrient profiles here don’t match info on WH Foods and Nutritional Data sites. I’m tracking these nutrients due to my hypothyroidism.

Oh, and Oat groats apparently contain NO micronutrients 😂
The nutrient values for NCCDB foods come from the Nutrient Coordinating Center. Here is a link to our sources and where you can learn more about them:

In general, the NCC conducts repeated analysis on a food throughout the year to get an average value for each nutrient, or finds these values in peer-reviewed sources.
You can find top foods containing certain nutrients by using the nutrient oracle in Cronometer. You can learn more about this Gold feature here: https://cronometer.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360018510531
