Blooms Selenium Forte - May help to reduce the visible signs of ageing by preserving tissue elasticity and help prevent disease and assist in the maintenance of general health.
The Selenium in Blooms Selenium Forte is a compound of the important antioxidant glutathione peroxidase, which helps protect cells and tissues against the damaging effects of free radicals.
While free radicals arise normally in the body and do have a function, factors such as pollution, radiation, cigarette smoke and herbicides can create an abundance of them leading to premature ageing and disease. Selenium binds to metals such as lead, mercury, aluminum and silver minimising their absorption in the body.
Antioxidants are naturally ocurring chemicals in foods that help to counter the detrimental effects of oxygen free radicals, which form during normal metabolism ad through external factors such as x-rays, ultra-violet radiation and pollution.
Oxygen free radicals have been implicated in the development of svereal diseases including cancer and heart disease, highlighting the need to consider antioxidant levels as part of preventative medicine.
