Innate Response Formulas   Selenium - 90 Tablets

Selenium is an antioxidant. Antioxidants are extremely important‚ because they protect your body against harmful free radicals by neutralizing them. Those free radicals promote aging and disease (including cancer and heart disease) by damaging DNA and cell membranes. This mineral also helps your thyroid function effectively.

Are you getting enough selenium in your diet? With today’s diets comprised of processed food‚ you may be consuming less than you think. It’s necessary in order for your immune system to work properly‚ since it assists your body in building up white blood cells; that may explain why people with conditions like cancer or rheumatoid arthritis tend to be deficient in selenium. Although your body naturally makes this mineral‚ it’s in very small amounts. Therefore‚ you need to get more through food or supplements. Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis are among the other illnesses that may prevent your body from absorbing sufficient amounts of selenium. You may also have low selenium levels if you smoke‚ drink alcohol‚ or use birth control pills.

Studies indicate that a supplement including selenium may reduce the risk of prostate cancer for some men. There is also a possibility of selenium lowering colorectal cancer risk; this is in addition to evidence that a selenium deficiency may contribute to hardening of plaque buildup in the arteries (atherosclerosis) and heart failure‚ so supplementation could help.

Innate Response Formulas’ selenium tablets are also made with kelp‚ dulse‚ and rice bran—this provides your body with additional nutrients. Several unique botanical and whole food blends provide additional benefits; these blends include organic ingredients such as spinach‚ carrots‚ beets‚ ginger‚ and turmeric. Plant-sourced enzymes and an immune blend further contribute to your body’s ability to absorb selenium. At the recommended dosage of one tablet per day‚ this 90-tablet bottle should last you for about three months.
