Ingredients explained
Selenium (as Se-methyl-L-selenocysteine)
Provides selenium for selenoproteins such as glutathione peroxidases and thyroid enzymes, which help manage oxidative stress and support normal thyroid hormone metabolism.
Caution: Do not exceed suggested intake because high selenium intake may cause unwanted effects such as gastrointestinal upset or hair and nail changes.
Selenium (as L-selenomethionine)
Acts as a bioavailable selenium source that can be incorporated into body proteins and used to build selenoproteins involved in antioxidant defence.
Caution: Consider total selenium from diet and supplements to avoid excessive intake.
Selenium (as sodium selenite)
Supplies inorganic selenium that the body converts into active selenide for synthesis of antioxidant and thyroid-related selenoproteins.
Caution: Take with food if sensitive, as minerals on an empty stomach may cause mild nausea.
Vitamin E (as D-alpha tocopheryl succinate)
Functions as a lipid-soluble antioxidant that helps stabilise cell membranes by neutralising free radicals.
Caution: If using high-dose anticoagulant therapy, consult a healthcare professional because vitamin E may influence bleeding tendency at higher intakes.
How they work together
Three complementary forms of selenium provide different absorption and metabolic pathways to build a broad range of selenoproteins. Vitamin E adds lipid-phase antioxidant activity, complementing selenium-dependent enzymes that act mainly in aqueous and intracellular environments.
Safety and tips
Label Warning: Do not exceed the recommended dose. Consult a doctor if you are receiving treatment for a medical condition or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
Who should be cautious: People with thyroid concerns or on thyroid medications may wish to discuss selenium use with a healthcare provider. Those taking anticoagulants or with bleeding concerns may wish to discuss vitamin E use. If combining with medications, a healthcare provider’s guidance is recommended.
Storage: Store tightly closed in a cool, dry place.

Overview
- Gluten-Free
- 1 Daily
- Non-GMO LE Certified
- Providing The Most Advanced Form of Selenium
- Food Supplement
Our Super Selenium Complex Provides three forms of selenium, as well as a small amount of vitamin E.
Antioxidant, thyroid & immune support
Selenium is an important factor in protecting your body from oxidative damage. That’s because a group of powerful antioxidant enzymes in the body called glutathione peroxidases require selenium to function. Selenium has also been shown to support normal thyroid and immune function in healthy individuals.
Cardiovascular health, brain health & healthy cell division
Selenium is a vital nutrient for healthy cell division. But its ability to promote a healthy inflammatory response and quench free radicals has led scientists to explore its beneficial effects related to other conditions involving oxidative damage, particularly for heart and brain health.
