Ingredients explained
Selenium (as L-selenomethionine)
Selenium is incorporated into selenoproteins such as glutathione peroxidases and thioredoxin reductases, which may help neutralise oxidative by-products and support antioxidant defences and immune function.
Caution: High intakes over time may cause unwanted effects like brittle hair or nail changes, so follow the suggested use and avoid combining with other high-selenium products; if pregnant, nursing, or taking medications, consult a professional due to limited safety data at higher doses.
Calcium (from dicalcium phosphate)
Calcium serves as a signalling mineral involved in muscle contraction and nerve transmission, though the amount here is nutritionally minor.
Caution: Contains a small amount of calcium which is unlikely to affect most users, but those managing total calcium intake should account for it.
How they work together
Selenium as L-selenomethionine supplies a bioavailable form that the body can incorporate into antioxidant enzymes, while the small amount of calcium contributes to general mineral balance without significantly affecting the selenium-focused purpose.
Safety and tips
Who should be cautious: People with thyroid concerns or on anticoagulants may wish to discuss selenium use with a healthcare provider. Those with a history of selenium sensitivity or on multiple supplements containing selenium may consider monitoring total intake. If combining with medications that may interact with minerals such as calcium, consult a healthcare provider before use.
