It's talking about protons (hydogen */nuclei/*) and neutrons fusing into alpha particles (helium */nuclei/*). The CMBR was emitted much later when it was cool enough for nuclei to capture electrons and become hydrogen and helium /*atoms*/.

I'm watching a science channel about the BB. It's claimed that in the VERY early universe, a few seconds after the BB, it was so HOT that Hydrogen was fusing into Helium. BUT ... I thought Hydrogen didn't form until around 380,000 years AFTER the BB, when the CMBR formed. What's going on? TIA, AG
