Scientific Mechanism
Selenium is an essential trace mineral crucial for human health. The active ingredient, Selenious Acid, provides bioavailable selenium. At a cellular level, selenium is integral to the synthesis of selenoproteins. These proteins function as powerful antioxidants, such as glutathione peroxidases, which protect cell membranes from oxidative damage caused by free radicals. This mineral also plays a vital role in DNA synthesis and thyroid hormone metabolism, supporting immune function and cellular repair mechanisms.
Key Benefits
Key benefits include:
- Supports a robust immune system response
