Bio-Selenium L-Selenomethionine (Selenium SeLECT®) is a safe and effective form of supplemental selenium. Selenium is an essential trace element in nutrition for the maintenance of health and a strong immune system. Epidemiologic investigations indicate an association between low selenium status and increased risk of below-optimum cardiovascular function. Selenium supports the detoxification of the heavy metal mercury from the body. There is also an inverse association between serum selenium levels and cellular dysfunction in various sites of the body. Selenium is also an effective detoxicant antioxidant due to its role in the glutathione peroxidase detoxification mechanism, which protects cellular components from oxidative stress and damage. Glutathione is involved in the transport of amino acids as well as in the quenching of free radicals and detoxification of certain harmful chemicals. Because selenium deficiency in the food chain is well recognized, the role of selenium for human health has become increasingly important. Selenium in studies, support its ability to be cancer protective. Clinical studies correlate health status and general well being with optimum blood levels of selenium.
