Zhou Selenium 200mcg | for Thyroid, Prostate and Heart Health | Essential Trace Mineral with Superior Absorption | No Yeast

I take Selenium for hypothyroid

I have hypothyroid and my thyroids are not converting the T4 into T3. After iodine, selenium is probably the next most important mineral affecting thyroid function. The thyroid contains more selenium by weight than any other organ. Selenium is a necessary component of the enzymes that remove iodine molecules from T4 converting it into T3; without selenium there would be no activation of thyroid hormone. When patients suffering from various forms of thyroid disease were tested for selenium levels, all were found to be lower than normal healthy people. Some researchers suggest that selenium supplementation will improve conversion of T4 to T3. Selenium also plays a role in protecting the thyroid gland itself. The cells of the thyroid generate hydrogen peroxide and use it to make thyroid hormone. Selenium protects the thyroid gland from the oxidative damage caused by these reactions. Without adequate selenium, high iodine levels lead to destruction of the thyroid gland cells

Amazing!

I have hashimotos. I've had it since I was 18 and right now I'm 20 years old. Every day I would wake up and didn't feel like I could function well at all. No matter how much sleep I would get, I would end up always feeling tired. Yet at the same time, I had an incredibly hard time falling asleep. I would also often experience pain on my back whenever I would stand or walk for 30 minutes. Selenium 200mcg has helped to get rid of all of those symptoms and make me feel like myself again

I Use This Product In Combination With My Thyroid Pill (Synthroid)

Selenium is a trace mineral for good cell health. Selenium is good for the brain, thyroid function, metabolism and a great antioxidant. Some foods selenium is found in are, brazil nuts, poultry, seafood, oats, & brown rice. Great for burns (healing) improves immune system against bacterial & viral infections. One of the major nutritional benefits of selenium is increasing the HDL cholesterol to LDL cholesterol for a healthy heart. I do not take Selenium every day, but maybe once every OTHER day

Quality Supplement

This stuff is good. I have Grave's Disease, and started taking this with Kelp and Vit C and my numbers have improved. I ran out of it, and didn't reorder for some reason, and my doc told me to get back on it after looking at my blood work. Another time I ran out, I bought another brand from the store, and it simply made me ill. This product is the real deal

Organic Selenium, a necessary trace dietary element

Our soils and foods have gotten more and more depleted of the nutritive components our bodies require for proper cellular maintenance and function. Consequently, it's becoming ever more necessary to add to our daily diets with trace elements and minerals from supplemental sources. Food production nowadays is primarily geared to speed and quantity, as opposed to nutritional value. Selenium is but one of those vital trace elements we all require. Based on my research into matters I've chosen this supplier and can state that I am happy with their product. For additional information on this particular element, see: [...] http://www.amazon.com/Organic-Selenium-Thyroid-Prostate-Health/dp/B00TXR7O3C/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1455407536&sr=8-1&keywords=selenium organi

Best selenium I've tried.

I usually have a pretty sensitive stomach for supplements like this but this makes me feel great. It's giving me energy as well, which isn't what I was expecting. I take these to boost my immune system as it is rich in antioxidant properties. No weird after taste either. Will keep buying these and I highly recommend them

I had bad reactions from this product and I stopped using it

I had bad reactions from this product and I stopped using it. It's not a pure Product. Why not to include clearly in to the description of the product, that this products contains: Silicon Dioxide, Rice Flour, Vegetable Cellulose, Magnesium stearate? This information on the bottle in a very small font was covered with the blank white Mailing label. Once this label removed i was able to read the information, using reading Magnifier. I think the Chinese character on the bottle means that this product is distributed from China. On the bottle it says: Distributed by Zhou, no phone number for questions, only P O Box. I could not read the GMP stamp and have only to assume that this product is manufactured and packaged in a facility which may also process GM soy, wheat ..etc. as per label.. There is nothing on the bottle indicating that this is Organic Supplement?! Misleading presentation! I just purchased one from the department store and it has "Satisfaction Guaranteed, product tested and produced to certified quality standards, has phone available for questions, made with vegetable capsules and there are no other ingredients." ..and yes, you can read it clearly, without magnifying glass. I would not recommend this product and i would not buy this product again

I'll be Buying this AGAIN forsure!!!

I purchased this item based largely on the reviews I read & a deep personal desire to maybe just maybe finally get more than a hour or two of sleep in one stretch. I have had extreme difficulties with my sleep for many years now. I never feel rested when I do finally get up. It didn't matter if I took sleep aids, stopped drinking coffee, or anything else the doctors recommended, I just couldn't get to sleep and when I finally did so; I didn't sleep more than and hour or so at a time. It was exhausting. At this point I have now been taking just one of these pills in the am for the last 30 days. Last week I stopped all my other sleep aids and just kept taking this supplement. Though I am still having issues, I noticed now that I actually get tired and start yawning sooner rather than never the last couple of days now. I fall a sleep much quicker now and once asleep I stay a sleep for 3 hours or more. I am still working to get on a more normal schedule but am very impressed with how much this one little pill has helped my situation. I am looking forward to actually maybe getting a solid 6 hours of sleep some day. Bottom line, if you have thyroid issues, can't sleep well, you should give this a try. Just one bottle will let you know if it helps. In my opinion, its a small price to pay if you get the results I did. I highly recommend
