Selenium for Immune System Support

The immune system is a complex network of cells, tissues and organs that work together to help keep us healthy. It requires a range of nutrients to help it work properly, including selenium and vitamin C. Selenium is a key component of various enzymes and proteins, called selenoproteins. You can learn more in our guide to the 8 Best Vitamins to Support Your Immune System

 

As it plays a key role in supporting normal immune function, selenium is included in many of our Immune System Vitamins, including high-quality selenium tablets. 

 

Our guide to Supporting Your Immune System explains more about the immune system, why it is so important and how best to support it.
