Angstrom Selenium by Angstrom Minerals – 32 oz

Angstrom Minerals Selenium Liquid Supplement – 32 oz

An Essential Trace Mineral

Selenium is an essential trace mineral. Your body needs only a small amount, but it plays an important role in many processes. The body cannot make selenium, so it must come from food or supplements.

Good food sources include Brazil nuts, seafood, organ meats, eggs and whole grains. The selenium content of plant foods depends on the soil where they were grown. Soil selenium levels vary widely around the world, and some regions have very low levels. Angstrom Minerals Selenium gives you a simple, measured way to support your daily intake.

How Selenium Works in the Body

Selenium is built into at least 25 selenoproteins, which are special enzymes and proteins. Two important groups are glutathione peroxidases, which help neutralize free radicals, and iodothyronine deiodinases, which help convert thyroid hormones into their active form. Through these selenoproteins, selenium supports many of the body’s core functions.

Benefits of Angstrom Minerals Selenium

• Supports thyroid health: The thyroid gland contains more selenium than any other organ. Selenium helps convert the thyroid hormone T4 into its active form, T3.

• Supports antioxidant defenses: Selenium is part of glutathione peroxidase, one of the body’s key antioxidant enzymes. It helps protect cells from oxidative damage caused by free radicals.

• Supports immune function: Adequate selenium helps maintain a normal, healthy immune response.

• Supports DNA production: Selenoproteins take part in making DNA and protecting it from damage.

• Supports reproductive health: Selenium plays a role in normal sperm production and movement in men and supports overall reproductive function.

• Supports healthy metabolism: Through its role in thyroid hormone activity, selenium helps support normal energy metabolism.

• Works with other antioxidants: Selenium works together with vitamin E and other nutrients to support the body’s natural defenses.

Why Choose an Ionic Liquid Mineral?

Angstrom Minerals are ionic, water-soluble minerals. The selenium is already dissolved in purified water, so your body does not need to break down a tablet or capsule first. The product contains no binders, coatings, fillers, sugar or artificial colors.

The liquid form also makes the dose easy to adjust. You can measure exactly what you need, including a half teaspoon, which is useful if you already get selenium from food or other supplements.
