Extended Info
Selenium is an essential trace mineral. It is primarily required for the formation of Glutathione Peroxidase, an antioxidant enzyme, which protects body cells against oxidative damage by free radicals. Free radicals are harmful particles produced in the body as a natural consequence of metabolism and environmental sources e.g. stress, ageing, smoking, pollution. Selenium has been shown to enhance the utilisation of Vitamin E and both nutrients work synergistically as antioxidants. Selenium also plays an important role in protecting and maintaining the healthy function of vital body organs such as the heart, liver, pancreas, thyroid glands and lungs and also promotes immune response to antibodies.Recommended for:- The elderly- Those with stressful lives- Those regularly exposed to sources of environmental pollution- Smokers- Those with a low nutrient diet- People suffering from degenerative conditions- Those interested in slowing the ageing process- Those with a family history of cancer
