What is Selenium?

Selenium is an essential mineral, meaning the body needs it to function properly but cannot produce it on its own, so it must be supplied through the diet. Selenium is found naturally in various foods, including nuts, seeds, meat, fish, eggs and dairy products.

The selenium content of the soil also affects the amount of selenium in crops and thus the availability of selenium in the diet. It is important to get enough selenium through a varied and balanced diet to support the body's various functions.

This product contains 200 mcg of selenium and 30 mg of vitamin E.

Our soils in Sweden have been leached of selenium since the Ice Age and a dietary supplement may be necessary.
