selenium-glycinate-yeast-free-BB Servings per Container: 90 Albion Selenium Glycinate from Bluebonnet is a dietary supplement to support the antioxidant defense system of the body. We only require small amounts of selenium for good health. This trace mineral is used to produce important antioxidant enzymes that help prevent cellular damage from free radicals, aid the regulation of the thyroid function, and support the immune system. Free radicals are natural by-products of oxygen metabolism that may contribute to the development of such chronic diseases as cancer and heart disease. In the US, most cases of selenium deficiency are connected with severe gastrointestinal problems, including Crohns disease, or with the surgical removal of part of the stomach. Three specific diseases have been associated with selenium deficiency: Keshan Disease, which results in an enlarged heart and poor heart function Kashin-Beck Disease, which results in osteoarthropathy, or diseases of the joints or bones Myxedematous Endemic Cretinism, which results in mental retardation Selenium Glycinate 200 mcg Vcaps provide low molecular-weight selenium glycinate, using amino acid to transport the mineral, in easy-to-swallow vegetable capsules for maximum assimilation and absorption.
