Selenium 200mcg

Selenium is a trace mineral essential for the function of selenoproteins including glutathione peroxidases (antioxidant enzymes) and iodothyronine deiodinases (thyroid hormone conversion). Each capsule provides 200mcg of selenium as L-selenomethionine – the organic form found in plants, with higher bioavailability and retention than selenite. Benefits: reduces thyroid autoantibodies in Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, supports male fertility (sperm motility), enhances immune response to viral infections, and may reduce cancer risk (especially prostate, lung, colorectal) in low-selenium populations. 120 capsules – four-month supply (one capsule daily). Caution: Tolerable upper intake level is 400mcg/day for adults; chronic excess (>900mcg/day) causes selenosis (garlic breath, hair loss, brittle nails). Do not exceed recommended dose. Free from gluten, GMOs, and preservatives.
