Selenium can prevent oxidization and thereby protect cells and tissues from free radicals.Selenium is concentrated in the kidneys,  liver,  muscles and the thyroid. It boosts and helps regulate the immune system and fights back infections,  some harmful bacteria and viruses.Selenium deficiency reduces the activities of the selenium-dependent antioxidant enzymes,  leading to a number of functional disorders including skeletal muscle dysfunction,  cardiac dysfunction,  hepatic degradation,  increased capillary permeability,  and pancreatic degeneration.L-selenomethionine is easily absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract and is better absorbed and retained in the body than other forms including selenite or selenate. Organic forms of selenium,  such asL-selenomethionine,  are selenium bound to methionine,  an essential amino acid.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eINGREDIENTS\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"ingredients-list\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"title\"\u003eMedicinal Ingredients\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cul class=\"medicinal\"\u003e\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"ingredient-name\"\u003eSelenium\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ingredient-amt\"\u003e200 mcg\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"title\"\u003eNon-Medicinal Ingredients\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cul class=\"non-medicinal\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ingredient-name\"\u003eCarbohydrate gum\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ingredient-name\"\u003eGelatin\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ingredient-name\"\u003eL-leucine\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ingredient-name\"\u003eMagnesium Stearate\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ingredient-name\"\u003eMicrocrystalline cellulose\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ingredient-name\"\u003ePurified water\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ingredient-name\"\u003eSilica\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"PREFERRED NUTRITION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45219116875823,"sku":"115101201","price":11.69,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/2885\/1247\/files\/628826001997_362e431c-042c-4645-ae05-912beb889a3e.jpg?v=1776627963","url":"https:\/\/mychoicenaturally.ca\/products\/28403901","provider":"My Choice Naturally","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
