Selenium

Selenium is an important trace mineral and an essential nutrient that your body needs. Low levels of selenium can impact the heart, joints, eyes, and the immune, endocrine, and reproductive systems. Because the body cannot make selenium on its own, selenium must come from the diet or supplementation. Thorne uses on of the most bioavailable forms of selenium – L-selenomethionine – to help the body maintain an optimal selenium level. Supplementing selenium supports normal cell function and differentiation, and healthy heart, connective tissue, eye, liver, and thyroid function.*
