What is Selenium 55 Pure Encapsulation 90 caps used for?
An important trace element and antioxidant (yeast-free), selenium helps :
- cell protection against oxidative stress;
- normal functioning of the immune system;
- maintenance of normal hair and nails.
The trace element selenium is present in soil and rock, and reaches the food chain via plants and cereals. In Europe, soils are generally not particularly rich in selenium, which is why Central Europeans often experience deficiencies in this essential trace element. Selenium is an antioxidant that protects against oxidative cell damage and supports the immune system. Selenomethionine is very well assimilated by the body as an organic selenium compound. Selenium (Selenomethionine) from Pure Encapsulations® is yeast-free!
Selenium acts as a powerful antioxidant, protecting cells against damage caused by free radicals, helping to maintain optimal cellular health. Free radicals, unstable molecules produced during the body's normal metabolism or in response to external factors such as pollution or stress, can damage cells and tissues, leading to premature aging and health problems. As an antioxidant, selenium neutralizes these free radicals by providing them with extra electrons, preventing them from damaging essential cellular structures. This protective action helps prevent oxidative stress and maintain cell integrity, which is crucial for the proper functioning of various organs and systems in the body.
Selenium plays a vital role in supporting the immune system by promoting its proper functioning. The immune system is responsible for defending the body against pathogens such as viruses, bacteria and fungi, as well as abnormal cells such as cancer cells. Selenium helps regulate immune responses by influencing the activity of immune cells, notably T lymphocytes and natural killer (NK) cells. It also contributes to the production of antioxidant enzymes, such as glutathione peroxidase, which protect immune cells against oxidative damage and promote their optimal functioning. Thus, adequate selenium intake is essential for maintaining a strong, resilient immune system, capable of responding effectively to health threats.
In addition to its roles in cellular protection and immunity, selenium is also known for its beneficial effects on hair and nail health. Studies have shown that selenium contributes to the production of structural proteins such as keratin, which are important for hair and nail growth and strength. By promoting the synthesis of these proteins, selenium can help strengthen hair and nails, reducing the risk of brittleness, breakage and loss. What's more, its antioxidant properties protect hair follicles and nail matrices from oxidative damage, promoting their overall health and aesthetic appearance. By including an adequate source of selenium in the diet, or through supplements such as Selenium 55 Pure Encapsulation, it is possible to significantly support the health and beauty of hair and nails.
