Selenium and iodine are essential trace elements. Both are more lacking in our soils in Central Europe than in other parts of the world, as they have already been leached out to a significant extent. This can lead to deficiencies, particularly in vegan and vegetarian diets. The Alps and the Alpine foothills are particularly low in selenium, especially where higher levels of radiation are to be expected. As the soil and surface water are low in iodine, so too are agricultural produce and freshwater fish.

The production of selenium from quinoa sprouts follows a natural principle. Plants utilise selenium by absorbing it from the soil and incorporating it into their plant tissue. In the process, it is converted into organic selenium. The same process occurs in quinoa sprouts, which are watered with sodium selenate during the sprouting process. They also contain a wide range of other naturally occurring vital substances that they require for healthy growth and produce themselves. Once the germination process is complete, the mature sprouts are thoroughly washed to remove the nutrient solution, then dried and ground. This plant-based form of selenium is highly suitable for selenium supplementation; it does not interact with other micronutrients and, as an antioxidant, is embedded within a natural matrix of other antioxidant compounds that neutralise one another.

Kelp algae provide a good source of iodine, but often have the disadvantage that the iodine content can be too high without this being noticeable. With kelp algae extract, however, the iodine content is standardised.

Selenium from quinoa sprouts is also available in a formulation without iodine.

Selenium contributes to:

• protecting cells from oxidative stress
• to the normal functioning of the immune system
• to supportingthyroid function
• to maintaining normal hair and nails
• to normal spermatogenesis (the formation of sperm cells)

Iodine contributes to:

• to normal cognitive function 
• to normal energy metabolism 
• to the normal functioning of the nervous system 
• to the normal production of thyroid hormones 
• to normal thyroid function
