Bios Selenomethionine 40 mg Capsules, 100 ST

Bios Selenomethionine 40 mg capsules provide you with an organic selenium compound with high bioavailability. Selenium supports normal thyroid function and helps maintain normal hair.

Selenium is an essential trace element. As it is usually bound to proteins, protein-rich foods such as meat and fish in particular contain higher amounts of selenium. Plant-based foods often contain insufficient levels of selenium, particularly when the plants are grown in Central European soils, which are generally low in selenium. 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
