Ingredients explained
Selenium (as L-selenomethionine)
Selenium is incorporated into selenoproteins like glutathione peroxidase and thioredoxin reductase, which help neutralize reactive oxygen species and support antioxidant defenses and immune function.
Caution: Do not exceed suggested use because high selenium intake may cause side effects such as gastrointestinal upset or hair and nail changes; consult a healthcare professional if you regularly eat selenium-rich foods or use other selenium supplements.
Calcium (from dicalcium phosphate)
Calcium supports cellular signaling and enzyme activity, contributing to normal muscle and nerve function.
Caution: Contains a small amount; consider total daily calcium from diet and supplements to avoid excessive intake over time.
How they work together
Selenium supplies an antioxidant cofactor for enzymes that manage oxidative stress, while calcium supports normal cellular signaling and muscle function. Together they cover antioxidant activity and basic electrolyte needs from different biological angles.
Safety and tips
Who should be cautious: People on blood thinners, with thyroid conditions, kidney issues, or those consuming high-selenium diets may need caution due to potential effects on selenium levels. If pregnant, nursing, or on medications, discuss with a healthcare provider before use.
