Pharma Nord Selenium+Zinc,150 dragees

The ideal antioxidant complex with SelenoPrecise

Properties:
The ingredients of Selenium+Zinc Tablets include: Selenium, Zinc, Vitamin A, Vitamin B6, Vitamin C and Vitamin E. The antioxidants in this unique complex, which has been on the market for more than 25 years, complement, support and support each other protect the body. Their cooperative properties and high quality make Selenium+Zinc the ideal antioxidant complex. Selenium+Zinc can also be used as an alternative to beta-carotene multivitamins that smokers may wish to avoid.
Pharma Nord Selen+Zinc is the ideal antioxidant complex because all active ingredients have the ability to protect the body's DNA, proteins and lipids against oxidative damage.



Selenium+Zinc contains 100 micrograms of selenium from Pharma Nord's patented, organic and easily absorbable selenium yeast SelenoPrecise. SelenoPrecise contains 66% selenomethionine and 34% various other forms of selenium, equivalent to what we get from a selenium-rich diet. 89% of the selenium in the tablet is absorbed. The absorption and effect seem to increase even further when selenium is combined with vitamins A, B6, C, E and zinc, which are also organically bound.



Pahma Nord's patented selenium yeast absorbs better than other organic and inorganic forms of selenium.

Benefits:
Selenium:
Selenium is an essential trace mineral found in many selenoproteins and selenium-dependent enzymes important to human health and well-being. One of these enzymes is glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), which has a number of important functions in the body and helps maintain excellent health. Selenium is also important for the production of metabolic hormones in the body. It is known that selenium is part of biological processes and is important for maintaining a normal immune system, thyroid function, sperm cell formation, cell protection, and normal hair and nails.
Most selenium in the body comes in two forms:
One major form is selenomethionine, which is incorporated in place of methionine in a number of different proteins, the other form is selenocysteine.
Selenomethionine is only found in food because the body cannot produce it itself. In the body, selenomethionine can be converted into selenocysteine, which is also found in food in the form of Se-methylselenocysteine.
If the diet is low in selenium, the body can store selenium for a while by binding selenomethionine to proteins.
SelenoPrecise contains both main forms as well as a number of other selenium compounds.

Metal Binding Ability of Selenium:
In the body, selenium forms insoluble compounds by binding to a number of heavy metals, which are then excreted from the body. Such a process depletes the body's selenium, leaving less selenium available for other processes* that require selenium. Studies have shown that selenium can bind mercury at a 1:1 rate.

Selenium is found in food, for example in fish, nuts and cereals. For people who don't eat these foods regularly, it may be beneficial to supplement with selenium to meet needs. The Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) is 45 μg (micrograms) for women and 55 μg for men.

Organically bound selenium is better absorbed:
The selenium found in the soil is inorganic, but is absorbed by animals and plants and converted into organic selenium. Selenium found in food is organic and bound to amino acids such as methionine and cysteine, for example. In contrast, selenium can be found in both organic and inorganic forms in dietary supplements, since organic selenium compounds are known to be more easily absorbed by the body and are found in selenium-dependent enzymes and selenium proteins. In addition, organic selenium compounds are not reduced by taking vitamin C at the same time.

Different soil contents:
In countries with selenium-rich soils, the population consumes a correspondingly high selenium content. In the United States, where selenium is very high in the soil, particularly in the northern United States, the population naturally ingests between 60 and 220 μg daily.
Germany is one of the countries with selenium-poor soils.
The natural selenium content in the soil there is lower than in other parts of the world.

zinc:
Zinc is one of the essential trace elements and is involved in numerous processes in our body. Since our body cannot produce this trace element itself or store it in large quantities, we are dependent on a regular supply through food.
