Selenium is an essential trace element and a central component of many proteins in the body. Many of these so-called selenoproteins are involved in the mechanisms of detoxification. It depends on the selenocysteine-containing glutathione peroxidase enzymes, which play an important role in the management of oxidative stress by neutralizing peroxide radicals. The antioxidant capacity of glutathione peroxidase is also important at the early stage of spermatogenesis for sperm motility.
Selenium-dependent enzymes are certain types of deiodases (enzymes that eliminate iodine), which also contain selenocysteine, which leads to the activation of thyroxine (T4) in the active form of triiodothyronine (T3) in the thyroid gland. The thyroid is the tissue with the highest concentration of selenium. Selenium is involved in protecting the thyroid cell from radical oxygen hydrogen peroxide, which is required by thyroid peroxidase to synthesize T3 and T4 from iodide and thyroglobulin.
Adequate selenium intake may have a positive effect on inflammatory changes in histological imaging in patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis. Studies have shown a positive effect of selenium on the level of thyroid peroxidase (TPO-AK) antibody production in patients. Studies have shown that selenium improves lymphocyte readiness for proliferation and differentiation into cytotoxic effector cells. Selenium contributes to normal immune function. "Selenium pure & strong" is characterized by L-selenomethionine, a biologically active form of highly absorbable selenium.
