SELENIUM™

For decades, the importance of selenium was unclear. Today, selenium is one of the most documented and widely-studied trace elements known. Selenium is an essential nutrient to the human body, which humans require, but cannot make. These nutrients must be provided in the diet or in supplement form. Selenium is also considered to have "anti-oxidant properties" which have been identified by the National Academy of Sciences as "a substance in foods that significantly decreases free radicals (e.g. reactive oxygen) and reactive nitrogen substances (e.g. N-nitroso compounds)". Vitamins C and E are examples of other anti-oxidants.

Recently the FDA authorized the following health claims submitted by the company and Dr. Wallach.

Selenium may reduce the risk of certain cancers. Some scientific evidence suggests that consumption of selenium may reduce the risk of certain forms of cancer. However, the FDA has determined that this evidence is limited and not conclusive.

"Selenium may produce anticarcinogenic effects in the body. Some scientific evidence suggests that consumption of selenium may produce anticarcinogenic effects in the body. However, the FDA has determined that this evidence is limited and not conclusive."

Suggested Use::  One to three capsules with a meal or as directed by your health care practitioner.
