Selenium Veggie Caps - Selenium, when found in nature, most always comes in forms that have low bioavailability. In other words, it comes in a molecule from which your body has a difficult time extracting it. Our selenium supplement comes in the form of ‘selenomethionine’, which is an amino acid with the highest bioavailability that is known. Like any other supplement, if you go with something that your body has difficulty breaking down, you are literally flushing your money down the toilet. You will not make this mistake with Elemental Nutrition – with any of our supplements. Our selenium is no different and is another example of the quality and forethought that has been put into our products.
As discussed in other products that are antioxidants, Selenium provides your body with a substance which will neutralize free radicals. Free radicals are little nasties inside your body which chemically combine with healthy tissue in your body during any process which burns oxygen – even just sitting there breathing. The human body is ironic in that the very thing we need to survive – oxygen - when burned, produces by-products that are harmful to us. Luckily, your body knows how to combat these by-products (free radicals), but only can do so when provided the proper nutrients, such as selenium. Our selenium supplement has exactly the form that your body can easily use. Please note: selenium is a wonderful supplement, but can be toxic in larger amounts. You only need a little, so only one capsule per day will be sufficient for most folks.
In today’s urban world, we are in much closer contact with large amounts of bacteria and viruses than in our rural past. People are sicker than ever, and diets are worse than ever. This partially explains the boom in the supplement industry, which is a wise thing to do, but is no replacement for eating healthy. You will always find us siding with the Registered Dietitians on eating properly. However, since we can’t avoid the fact that people are harboring more foreign bodies in their systems than ever before, it makes sense to keep your immune system as strong as possible. Our selenium supplement (as well as all of our immune system protecting supplements) will help you to attain this superior immune system. We don’t recommend you fear disease; rather, we advocate that you arm yourself for maximum defense against them.
