Selenium 120 Capsules 200µg

Selenium is a trace element that is nowadays considered one of the most important elements in our diet. Selenomethionine is a naturally occurring organic Amino Acid that is highly bioavailable and better absorbed by the gut than other, inorganic forms of selenium. In human body, selenium contributes to the normal thyroid function, to the immune system and to the maintenance of hair and nails. It plays an important role in spermatogenesis (development of the sperm cells). Selenium is also a natural, powerful antioxidant.

Human body cannot produce selenium so it has to obtain it from the food we eat. The amount of selenium in food depends on the soil it grows in, for example European soil, in general, is thought to be less rich in the element than the North American. Plant sources of selenium are brazil nuts, cereal grains, soybeans and legumes. Meats and seafood are also rich in selenium. Taking selenium as a food supplement in addition to a healthy diet can help maintain its sufficient level in our body.

Our Selenium capsules contain a high dose of this micronutrient in its highly bioavailable, easily absorbable form. One pack provides supply for up to 4 months.
