Liposomal Selenium capsules

Description

Selenium is a vital trace element crucial for human health. It plays a significant role in iodine metabolism and thyroid hormone production. Acting as a potent antioxidant, selenium aids in combating aging by neutralizing free radicals and maintaining cell health.

Selenium exerts its effects in the body through selenium proteins, each serving a distinct function. Selenium methionine stands out for its unique absorption mechanism, where selenium is integrated into the molecule, ensuring maximum bioavailability. Nearly 100% absorption occurs in the initial segment of the small intestine.
