Selenium

Selenium can be adequate to support your immune system and neutralize free radicals. You can also take our iodine supplement, Detoxadine, with Selenium for advanced thyroid support.

Our formula contains selenomethionine - naturally found in foods or plant-based sources like mustard seeds. Our selenium is made of organic mustard seeds.

The recommended dietary allowance of selenium for adults can range from 55 to 200 mcg. Adult females may need as little as 55 mcg; adult males as little as 70 mcg; pregnant females at least 65 mcg; and 75 mcg/day for lactating females. For adults, the safe upper limit is 400 mcg/day.

It can help to take Selenium with food - one capsule daily in the morning, afternoon, or evening. For best results, we suggest taking all supplements 2 hours away from Zinc.

It's possible to take too much of any nutrient. Our Selenium supplement provides concentrated nutrition to fill in the gaps in your diet. One capsule, which is the daily suggested serving, offers 200 mcg of selenium. That is well within adults' safe upper limit (400 mcg/day). Regardless, we understand that everyone is different and that individual needs may vary. To better understand how much selenium you need and how it can affect you if you take more than necessary, we suggest checking in with your healthcare provider for additional tips and guidance.

Selenium does not treat or address medical conditions like hypoactive thyroid or hyperactive thyroid. Its main role is to support normal thyroid health and help it use iodine and produce hormones. Selenium is also necessary for a strong immune system, healthy cardiovascular function, and efficient metabolism.

Selenium is considered a necessary nutrient while pregnant, and we generally recommend taking one capsule daily with food, which equals 200 mcg. Our product has been safe in the past for pregnant women; however, it's still vital to check in with your healthcare provider before use to ensure that you get the appropriate amount of selenium for your needs, as everyone is different.

Our method of activating and adding a unique, proprietary blend of Ormus Supercharged Minerals™ is based on techniques used by the Father of Alchemy, Philippus Aureolus Paracelsus, who concluded that the addition of trace minerals causes the herbal extract to become exponentially stronger (yet safe), as well as more bioavailable, therapeutic, balanced, and stable. Additionally, each step of the trace mineral production process gathers and concentrates monatomic elements and sends them into a high-electron spin state. Minerals and trace minerals are safely activated and pulled into organic complexes, where they are fixed and preserved in a readily available state. Ormus Supercharged Minerals also include Bamboo salts.

It's been safe to take Selenium and Iron together at the same time. You can also consume them 20-30 minutes apart if you prefer.

Each capsule contains 200 mcg of Selenium. If you prefer, you can open the capsules and mix half of the powder into juice or water; that's as effective as consuming the capsule.
