As an antioxidant, selenium helps guard cells against free radical damage within the body, and as such supports healthy eyes, lungs and other organs that may be subject to oxidative stress. Selenium also contributes to healthy functioning of both the immune system and the thyroid gland. In addition, selenium may promote breast health in women and prostate health in men.
Gastrointestinal disorders may decrease the absorption of selenium, resulting in deficiency or depletion. Selenium may also be destroyed when foods are overcooked, over-processed or over-refined.

All NSI supplements are packaged in HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) bottles. These bottles keep moisture vapor out, protecting the freshness and integrity of their contents, and are 400% more effective compared other brands currently using PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) bottles. HDPE bottles do not break as glass can and are also recyclable so we urge you to please recycle them.
