Bios Selenomethionine 20 mg Capsules, 100 ST

Discover Bios Selenomethionine Capsules, containing highly bioavailable selenium. This ingredient helps maintain the normal function of the immune system and protects cells from oxidative stress.

Selenium is an essential trace element. As it is usually bound to proteins, protein-rich foods such as meat and fish contain particularly high levels of selenium. Plant-based foods often contain insufficient selenium, particularly when the plants grow in the typically selenium-poor soils of Central Europe. Yet this nutrient plays a significant role in our well-being. For example, selenium helps protect cells from oxidative stress and contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system. As it is involved in the production of thyroid hormones and sperm, selenium also contributes to the normal functioning of the thyroid gland and to normal spermatogenesis. Furthermore, selenium helps maintain normal hair and nails. 

In selenomethionine, selenium is bound to the amino acid methionine. This compound is incorporated non-specifically into the body’s own proteins and stored there. When these proteins are naturally broken down, the selenium is released again. Selenium in the form of selenomethionine is therefore available to the body continuously and over the long term.

Indications:

• Selenium contributes to normal thyroid function
• Selenium contributes to the normal function of the immune system
• Selenium helps protect cells from oxidative stress
