Solaray Selenium Yeast Free 100 µg 90 capsules

What is Solaray Selenium used for?

Solaray selenium is a trace element (i.e. the body only needs very small quantities) essential to the human organism. It is present in trace amounts in foods. Like most trace elements, selenium plays a key role throughout the body. Intracellularly, it has an antioxidant effect, enabling the body to produce glutathione peroxidase. This enzyme works in conjunction with vitamin E to protect cell membranes against oxidation caused by free radicals. In excess, free radicals lead to premature ageing and contribute to the development of certain types of cancer, cardiovascular disease and cataracts. Selenium also plays an essential role in the functioning of the immune system and thyroid gland.

Selenium is a vital antioxidant, especially when combined with vitamin E. The form of selenium present in Solaray's Selenium dietary supplement is selenomethionine, as the form the body can use is L-selenomethionine. It is better absorbed and incorporated into body components than any other form of selenium. The high bioavailability of L-selenomethionine has been demonstrated in several studies.

Selenium is a trace element that plays a vital role in various biological functions. It is essential for human health:

• Antioxidant: Selenium is a powerful antioxidant compound. It helps neutralize free radicals in the body, helping to protect cells against oxidative damage.
• Immune support: Selenium is necessary for the proper functioning of the immune system. It can help boost the body's immune response.

One of the main benefits of Solaray Selenium is its impact on your immune system. By supporting the production of antioxidant enzymes, selenium helps protect your immune cells against external aggression. This means your body is better equipped to deal with infections, viruses and harmful bacteria. If you often feel like you're catching every cold that comes your way, selenium could well be your ally in boosting your natural defenses.

Not only does selenium protect your body from the inside out, it also has beneficial effects on your skin. By helping to preserve collagen, it keeps your skin supple and elastic, helping to prevent the early appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Your complexion will be brighter and more radiant thanks to this precious mineral.

Your thyroid gland plays an essential role in regulating your metabolism. Selenium is necessary for the production of thyroid hormones, ensuring the proper functioning of this gland. If you suffer from thyroid problems, adding Solaray Selenium to your routine can help maintain optimal thyroid balance.

Selenium is also linked to cardiovascular health. It can help reduce inflammation in the arteries, promoting blood circulation. By regularly consuming Solaray Selenium, you can help maintain a healthy heart.

The benefits of selenium don't stop there. It plays an important role in the prevention of certain serious conditions. Studies have shown that selenium supplementation can reduce the risk of certain cancers, including prostate and breast cancer. It can also help prevent degenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's.

Our advice and expert opinions

Trace elements must be taken in daily through the diet. The quantities needed are mostly in the micro-gram (ug) range. They contribute to the body's equilibrium by playing a part in numerous biochemical and metabolic reactions. In particular, they are involved in food assimilation and metabolism, as well as tissue renewal. They also boost the body's immune defenses. A deficiency in trace elements causes disorders inversely proportional to their size. Athletes are often deficient in these elements, leading to fatigue and infection.
