Thorne - Selenium, 60 Caps

200mcg
Selenium is an essential mineral that contributes to thyroid health.
As a mineral cofactor, Selenium contributes to the body’s natural antioxidant systems.
Selenium is an important trace mineral, and as an "essential" nutrient, your body does not produce selenium on its own. Therefore, it must be obtained from food sources or supplementation.
Maintaining an optimal selenium level contributes to normal cell function and thyroid health. Selenium is a valuable mineral to assist in maintaining a healthier body and overall well-being.
Thorne’s Selenium uses the purest form of selenium – bound to methionine for optimal absorption – without adding unnecessary additives or preservatives. Health benefits include:
Contribution to Thyroid Health
Selenium aids normal thyroid function in healthy individuals and is important for the proper functioning of the thyroid gland.* It is also necessary for converting the thyroid hormone T4 (thyroxine) to the active T3 form (triiodothyronine).
Contribution to Healthy Aging
Selenium benefits powerful antioxidant functions in your body by contributing to the glutathione and superoxide dismutase systems.* Antioxidants like selenium play a role in reducing oxidative damage in the body and brain caused by excess free radicals from environmental toxins, smoking, alcohol use, and stress.
Its antioxidant properties contribute to a healthy inflammatory response.
