Nausea relief with selenium supplementation
This randomized, double-blind, crossover study explored how selenium impacts nausea and overall health in children and adolescents undergoing chemotherapy for leukemia, lymphomas, and solid tumors.

We noted a decrease in nausea and fatigue scores, particularly after a year of selenium supplementation in patients with solid tumors, suggesting it may alleviate some side effects of chemotherapy.

However, there were no significant changes for leukemia patients in nausea, despite improvements in fatigue and physical function. Overall, selenium supplementation shows promise in enhancing the quality of life for young cancer patients.

No adverse effects with supplement
We evaluated the effects of a novel enteral supplement rich in essential nutrients on cancer patients recovering from surgery. In a clinical trial, twenty patients received this supplement and were monitored for metabolic effects and gastrointestinal tolerance.

Interestingly, we found that the supplement was well tolerated, with no recorded adverse effects like nausea or vomiting. Additionally, nutrient levels, including selenium, showed significant improvements post-surgery, indicating effective absorption. Overall, early gut feeding using this supplement seems to be a promising strategy for cancer patients.

Sodium selenite may reduce nausea
We explored the impact of sodium selenite on nausea in brain tumor patients through a carefully designed study. The treatment involved administering sodium selenite along with other supportive therapies over a period of 4 to 8 weeks.

Notably, 76% of patients reported significant improvements, including reductions in nausea and other troubling symptoms. Additionally, patients showed better overall health markers like increased blood counts.

This suggests that sodium selenite, especially when combined with oxygen therapy, may effectively address nausea and other symptoms in this challenging patient group.

Taking this supplement daily is entirely comfortable. I have no nausea at all; my stomach accepts the whole capsule perfectly. For me, this form is more suitable. There are no signs of selenium overdose, despite the high dosage. I've noticed that my overall condition improves when taking this selenium; I feel more vigorous, and my mood is more stable. I’m health-conscious, and selenium is beneficial for appearance too; they say it slows down the ageing process, which would be splendid. Hair growth is certainly accelerated; after a recent haircut, it grew back quickly, although I'd prefer thickness over speed at this point.

No nausea observed
One supplement that I try to keep in my medicine cabinet at all times is selenium. A doctor once remarked on its essential nature, noting that many now suffer from selenium deficiency, making it vital for us to protect ourselves from modern ailments. Taking this supplement daily is entirely comfortable; there is no nausea, and the stomach accepts the capsule well. I’ve noticed improved general well-being, feeling cheerier and enjoying a more stable mood. They say selenium slows down aging, which would be nice, but it's clear that my hair grows back quicker after a cut.

The dosage is optimal, and it’s quite comfortable to take, with no nausea at all. I feel more energetic and stable when taking selenium, which also promotes hair growth post haircuts.
