Jarrow Activated Selenium (60 Caps)

Jarrow Activated Selenium MOST ABSORBABLE FORM OF SELENIUM

  • Immune Boosting Antioxidant
  • Contains Vitamins E and B2
  • Powerful Preventative Supplement

Selenium: Is an essential trace mineral that works with Vitamin E in metabolic functions. It promotes normal body growth, enhances fertility, encourages tissue elasticity and is a potent antioxidant that naturally reduces the retention of toxic metals in the body. Selenium is crucial for the proper functioning of the heart muscle and there is evidence that it can help the body fight cancer. The people of Norfolk, England, are said to be among some of the longest-lived. Scientists believe it is due to high concentrations of selenium in the soil. Selenium is stored in muscle and other tissues, as well as in the liver and kidneys.

Selenium is incorporated into proteins to make selenoproteins, which are important antioxidant enzymes. The antioxidant properties of selenoproteins help prevent cellular damage from free radicals. Free radicals are natural by-products of oxygen metabolism that may contribute to the development of chronic diseases such as cancer and heart disease. Other selenoproteins help regulate thyroid function and play a role in the immune system.

What foods provide selenium?
Plant foods are the major dietary sources of selenium in most countries throughout the world. The content of selenium in food depends on the selenium content of the soil where plants are grown or animals are raised. For example, researchers know that soils in the high plains of northern Nebraska and the Dakotas have very high levels of selenium. People living in those regions generally have the highest selenium intakes in the United States (U.S.). In the U.S., food distribution patterns across the country help prevent people living in low-selenium geographic areas from having low dietary selenium intakes. Soils in some parts of China and Russia have very low amounts of selenium. Selenium deficiency is often reported in those regions because most food in those areas is grown and eaten locally.

Selenium also can be found in some meats and seafood. Animals that eat grains or plants that were grown in selenium-rich soil have higher levels of selenium in their muscle. In the U.S., meats and bread are common sources of dietary selenium. Some nuts are also sources of selenium.

Selenium content of foods can vary. For example, Brazil nuts may contain as much as 544 micrograms of selenium per ounce. They also may contain far less selenium. It is wise to eat Brazil nuts only occasionally because of their unusually high intake of selenium.

Some symptoms of a Selenium deficiency:

  • Age/liver spots
  • Immune deficiencies
  • Alzheimer’s
  • Infertility
  • Anemia
  • Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
  • Cancer
  • Muscular Dystrophy (MD)
  • Cardiomyopathy
  • Muscular weakness
  • Cirrhisis of the liver
  • Pancreatic atrophy
  • Cystic Fibrosis 
  • Pancreatitis
  • Fatigue
  • Parkinson’s Disease
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Premature aging
  • Heart disease
  • Scoliosis
  • Heart palpitations
  • Sickle cell anemia
  • Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS)
  • Hot flashes 

Vitamin E and B2 (Riboflavin) are important to the metabolism of Selenium. Odor modified garlic is a source of Cysteine, an amino acid used in selenium metabolism.

Jarrow Formulas’ Activated Selenium is formulated for optimum selenium function and is hypoallergenic. Each capsule contains 100 mcg. of Selenium Organically Bound to the amino acid L-Methionine, which is a combination found in nature and food.

What are the benefits of Vitamins and Minerals?

Vitamins are essential to sustain life and we must get them from our natural foods or dietary supplements. The nutrition they provide help people feel better, more energetic and assist the body with normal functions. Vitamins and minerals are necessary for our growth, vitality and well-being.

Vitamins and minerals are essential for our body but they are no replacement for food. A vitamin or mineral has no caloric or energy value by itself, but when taken as a dietary supplement to your daily food intake, they can help supplement your daily diet by balancing out the deficiencies of improper eating habits, overcooked foods and non-nutritive, processed foods. Sometimes vitamins are used as therapies for various ailments and disease.

What role do minerals play to keep us healthy?

In addition to vitamins, your body needs minerals to aid in the assimilation of the vitamins. Minerals help accelerate the billions of chemical reactions occurring in your body all the time. Some help in the efficient metabolization of proteins, fat and carbohydrates. Others help regulate the utilization of certain vitamins. Minerals actually become components of the body structure - bones, cartilage, toenails and fingernails, and they contribute toward hardness and strength.

I have heard that taking Vitamin E increases DHEA levels in body, is that true?

Vitamin E has recently been shown to protect/ preserve critical DHEA levels in the brain. It is suspected that preserving DHEA levels in the brain may delay the onset of many mental degenerative diseases associated with "getting older". According to a study done by Japanese researchers, vitamin E deficient diet notably reduced brain (adrenal) DHEA levels. However, using more vitamin E did not increase adrenal DHEA levels beyond normal values.

When can magnesium deficiency occur?

Even though dietary surveys suggest that many Americans do not consume magnesium in recommended amounts, magnesium deficiency is rarely seen in the United States in adults. When magnesium deficiency does occur, it is usually due to excessive loss of magnesium in urine, gastrointestinal system disorders that cause a loss of magnesium or limit magnesium absorption, or a chronically low intake of magnesium.
