Numerous studies have shown that Selenium offers major preventative protection against long-term health problems.
Studies show it may also boost your immunity levels and, when taken with vitamin E, can be a powerful tool to protect prostate health. Bio-Selenium + Zinc is a food supplement which cooperates with vitamins A, B6, C and E, as well as with the mineral zinc, in contributing to your body's mechanism for destroying harmful free radicals.
UK soils are low in selenium, with the result that the average daily intake of selenium in Britain is just 43mg, far lower than the World Health Organisation's daily guideline of 50-200mg. Bio-Selenium +Zinc may help to maintain healthy cardiovascular, immune and reproductive systems.
Help for Asthma
A recent study by the University of Maryland has shown that asthmatics are more likely to have low levels of selenium than non-sufferers and that supplementation can reduce symptoms. In the Maryland trial 24 patients with asthma were given daily selenium supplements or a placebo for 14 weeks. Those taking the supplement had reduced symptoms.
