Selenium acts as an antioxidant because it combats free radicals in the body and can protect cells against oxidative stress. Selenium prevents the degeneration of cells and protects against cardiovascular and rheumatic diseases.
Selenium can also enhance the healing process, by contributing to the normal function of the immune system and the thyroid gland. Selenium also strengthens the body's self-healing ability by stabilizing and energizing the immune system. This enables the body to produce more antibodies, defense cells and lymphocytes to fight invaders.
Selenium also plays a role in maintaining healthy hair and nails and contributes to normal sperm formation.
Selenium methionine is a compound of selenium with the amino acid L-methionine. L-methionine is a sulfur-containing amino acid. That is why the selenium methionine capsules have a characteristic smell that is reminiscent of sulfur or garlic.
The advantage of binding selenium to L-methionine, however, is that selenium can be optimally absorbed by the body in this form. This is why selenium methionine is considered the best form of selenium among nutrition experts.
In the warm season, the smell can become a little stronger. Therefore, the capsules should always be stored in a dark, cool and dry place (but not in the refrigerator).
Organically bound selenium in the form of selenomethionine is particularly well absorbed by the body. With optimal blood selenium levels, it is sufficient to take it every 3rd or 4th day. If there is a selenium deficiency or an increased need, we recommend discussing the duration and frequency of use with your family doctor or alternative practitioner.
