What's In It For
My Immune System?

Plays an important role in the health of our immune system. This potent antioxidant helps lower oxidative stress in your body, which reduces inflammation and enhances immunity. Studies have demonstrated that increased blood levels of selenium are associated with enhanced immune response.

Synergies
Selenium + Vitamin E

Vitamin E and Selenium work in synergy to protect cells from free radical damage. Selenium exerts its anti-oxidant effect within the cell itself, while Vitamin E works in the cell membranes which enclose the cell. An excess of one of these nutrients will help to counteract a deficiency of the other.
