Enhances chemotherapy efficacy
Selenium is a luxurious complex containing all three types—sodium selenite, selenomethionine, and yeast-derived selenium. It acts as a vital component of the antioxidant enzyme glutathione peroxidase, which, alongside vitamin E, helps prevent damage to cell membranes caused by free radicals. Low selenium levels have been linked to a heightened risk of cancer and other conditions resulting from free radical damage. Studies suggest that organic forms, particularly high selenium yeast, are more efficiently absorbed than inorganic salts. A daily dose of 50 to 200 mcg is generally recommended, but excessive intake can lead to toxicity, with symptoms including nausea and emotional instability. Notably, selenium may enhance the effectiveness of chemotherapy, specifically with cisplatin.
