Bio SelenoPrecise 100mg 60 tablets Bio SelenoPrecise 100mg 60 tablets SelenoPrecise are small, round white tablets each containing 100 micrograms of selenium from Pharma Nord's patented, standardized selenium yeast. SelenoPrecise contains in addition to selenomethionine more than 20 other organic selenium compounds. SelenoPrecise stands out by being able to document a very high level of bio-availability and a stable quality: 15 laboratories in 12 different countries have measured the content of L-methionine selenium in SelenoPrecise to be high and stable 89% of the selenium content is absorbed in the body Why so many different selenium compounds? SelenoPrecise contains many different selenium compounds because each type of selenium has different functions in the human body. By supplying a wide spectrum of selenium compounds it is possible to emulate the natural variety of selenium types found in selenium rich food. This, scientists believe, has the best effect on our health. Selenium is an essential trace element (mineral) of fundamental importance to human health What is Selenium? Selenium is an essential trace element that supports an array of selenoproteins and selenium-dependent enzymes that are important for human health and well-being. One of these enzymes is glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), which has several important functions in the body. In addition, selenium supports a normal thyroid function. The thyroid function helps the metabolism in balance. Furthermore selenium supports biological processes as: a normal immune system production of normal sperm cells cell protection the maintenance of normal hair and nails Most of the selenium in the body is found in two forms: Selenomethionine (that is embedded in different proteins instead of methionine) and selenocysteine. We get selenomethionine from the diet exclusively because the body is unable to synthesize it. The body is, however, able to convert selenomethionine to selenocysteine, which we are also able to get from the diet in the form of se-methylselenocysteine. In situations where we get too little dietary selenium, the body is able to use selenium that is stored in the body, simply by converting selenomethionine that is bound in different proteins. SelenoPrecise contains both of these main selenium sources (selenomethionine and selenocysteine) plus several other selenium compounds. The ability of selenium to bind to heavy metals In the body, selenium binds to different heavy metals and forms insoluble compounds that are eventually discharged from the body. This process consumes some of the available selenium, leaving less for other important selenium-dependent processes*. Studies show that selenium binds mercury in a 1:1 ratio. Where do we get selenium from the diet? Selenium is found in such things as fish, nuts, whole-grain. People who do not consume these food items regularly may benefit from taking a selenium supplement for the sake of getting sufficient amounts of the nutrient. The recommended daily allowance (RDA) for selenium is around 50-70 ?g (differs from country to country), were men generally need a little more than women. Organically bound selenium has higher absorption Selenium in the agricultural soil is inorganic. Once it gets absorbed by plants (and ends up in animals) it gets converted to organic selenium. The selenium we get from our diet can be bound to amino acids such as methionine and cysteine. In contrast, selenium in supplements can either be organic or inorganic. It is known that organic selenium compounds have an easier time getting absorbed into the body and incorporated in the different selenium-dependent enzymes and selenoproteins. Directions: 1-2 tablets per day For oral use. Do not exceed recommended amount. To be taken with food. Suitable for vegetarians and vegans. Pregnant and lactating women and those on medication should seek professional advice prior to taking supplements. Nutritional supplements should not be used as a substitute for a varied diet and a healthy lifestyle.
