Selenium, Super Selenium Complex

Selenium has received huge attention in recent times for its role in combating cancer. A five year study was undertaken at Cornell University and the University of Arizona. This study demonstrated that people taking 200 mcg of selenium a day had 63% less prostate tumours, 58% less colorectal cancers, 46% less lung malignancies and a 39% overall decrease in cancer deaths.

In additional studies selenium has shown promise in helping to prevent other cancers, such as cancer of the cervix, rectum, ovaries, bladder, oesophagus, pancreas and liver. It is also being tested for it’s effect against leukemia with the hope of promising results.

Scientists are continuing to research the benefits of selenium and whether it may indeed be among the answers for preventing cancer.

Selenium can also protect the heart, primarily by reducing the "stickiness" of blood and decreasing the risk of clotting, in turn, lowering the risk of heart attack, and stroke. Moreover, selenium increases the ratio of HDL ("good") cholesterol to LDL ("bad") cholesterol, which is critical for a healthy heart.

Smokers or those who've already had a heart attack or stroke may gain the greatest cardiovascular benefits from selenium supplements, though everyone can profit from supplementing with selenium.
