Selenium Liquid Overview
In today’s world, soil depletion and modern farming practices have left many of us deficient in this vital mineral. Don’t let a lack of Selenium hold you back from living your best life.
Sodium Selenate is one of best forms of supplemental selenium because it is highly soluble in water, making it easy for the body to absorb and assimilate. It is also stable and has a longer shelf life compared to other forms of selenium supplements.
Our Selenium supplement comes in liquid form, which is absorbed faster and more effectively in the body than other forms of supplements. Our liquid supplement is free of any binders, fillers, or additives that interfere with the absorption of the supplement by the body.
By taking our Selenium supplement, you’ll set the stage for supporting a robust immune system, supporting optimal thyroid function, and supporting a healthy liver. Plus, you may experience a surge in energy levels as a result of its ability to catalyze enzymes for energy production.
Support Optimal Liver Function
Selenium is crucial for the liver’s optimal function and protecting liver cells from damage caused by toxins and free radicals. Selenium provides detoxification support and immune system support. Selenium also aids in the production and activity of immune cells that recognize and attack invading pathogens and cancer cells.
Supports A Strong Robust Immune System
Selenium plays an essential role in immune function by helping to regulate the production and activity of immune cells, particularly T cells and natural killer cells. These cells are crucial for recognizing and attacking invading pathogens and cancer cells.
Promotes Optimal Thyroid Function
Selenium is essential for proper thyroid function because it plays a vital role in the synthesis and metabolism of thyroid hormones. The thyroid gland requires selenium to produce and activate the enzymes responsible for the conversion of the inactive thyroid hormone, thyroxine (T4), to the active form, triiodothyronine (T3). T3 is the primary hormone responsible for regulating the body’s metabolic rate, and it is essential for normal growth and development.
Selenium deficiency can lead to decreased activity of these enzymes, resulting in lower levels of T3 and an increased risk of thyroid disorders such as hypothyroidism. Hypothyroidism occurs when the thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormones, leading to a range of symptoms such as fatigue, weight gain, and depression.
Promotes Optimal Cognitive Health
Selenium plays a vital role in cognitive health by supporting brain function and protecting brain cells from damage caused by free radicals. Selenium is a component of several selenoproteins that are involved in various processes in the brain, such as neurotransmitter synthesis and antioxidant defense.
Studies have suggested that selenium supplementation may help improve cognitive function and reduce the risk of cognitive decline and Alzheimer’s disease. For example:
- A systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies published in the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease found that higher selenium intake was associated with a reduced risk of cognitive decline and Alzheimer’s disease.
-Cardoso, B. R., et al. “Selenium and cognitive decline: systematic review and meta-analysis.” Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease, vol. 54, no. 2, 2016, pp. 589-603. - A randomized controlled trial published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that supplementation with selenium and coenzyme Q10 improved cognitive function in elderly individuals with mild cognitive impairment.

Antioxidant Protection
Selenium is a powerful antioxidant that helps protect cells from damage caused by free radicals, which can contribute to chronic diseases such as cancer and heart disease.
Selenium works as an antioxidant in several ways. First, it is a component of several selenoproteins, including glutathione peroxidase, which is a powerful antioxidant enzyme that helps neutralize harmful free radicals in the body. Glutathione peroxidase works by converting hydrogen peroxide and other reactive oxygen species (ROS) into water and other harmless substances.
Selenium also helps protect cells from oxidative damage by promoting DNA repair and inhibiting the formation of harmful compounds that can cause cellular damage.
Selenium Deficiency Symptoms
Keep an eye out for signs of deficiency, including brain fog, hair loss, fatigue, difficulty concentrating, and low immune response.

Selenium Supplement Facts
2 fl. oz (60ml)
Serving Size: 30 Drops (2 dropper squeezes)
Servings Per Bottle: 30
Each Serving Contains: Selenium (as sodium selenate) 260 mcg which equals 371% DV.
Selenium Instructions
As a dietary supplement take 30 drops (2 dropper squeezes) daily with water or preferably with a meal or as directed by your healthcare professional.
*To use Selenium effectively, it is suggested to begin at a slow pace. Start with a single drop daily and allow ample time for the body and liver to adjust to increased detoxification. After a few days, incorporate an additional drop only after feeling balanced. If any detox symptoms occur, decrease the dosage by cutting in half or reducing by one drop. Repeat this gradual process until reaching the recommended daily intake. It is critical to excrete solid waste regularly to properly expel bile, which carries toxic substances. Consuming soluble fiber is also essential for binding to bile and removing it from the body.
