NOW Foods Selenium 200mcg - 90 Veg Capsules
R 289.00
200 mcg selenium for thyroid, immune, and glutathione support.
GLUTATHIONE PEROXIDASE COFACTOR
Selenium sits at the active site of glutathione peroxidase, the enzyme that uses glutathione to neutralise hydrogen peroxide and lipid peroxides.
THYROID HORMONE CONVERSION
Selenium is required for the deiodinase enzymes that convert inactive T4 to active T3. Without adequate selenium, thyroid output stalls.
IMMUNE CELL FUNCTION
Selenium supports T-cell and natural killer cell activity. Suboptimal selenium status is associated with increased viral susceptibility.
ANTIOXIDANT PROTECTION
As an essential trace mineral with antioxidant properties, selenium supports the body's defences against oxidative stress at the cellular level.

Primary Active Ingredients & Mechanisms
- Selenium 200 mcg
- A trace mineral that sits at the active site of selenoproteins, including glutathione peroxidase (antioxidant), iodothyronine deiodinases (T4 to T3 conversion), and thioredoxin reductase (cellular redox balance).
Who is it for?
Adults wanting thyroid and immune support, those with confirmed low selenium status, and people supporting glutathione antioxidant capacity. Particularly relevant given variable South African soil selenium.
Why use it?
Selenium status varies dramatically by region because plant content depends on soil. Two Brazil nuts can give a daily dose, but if your diet is light on selenium-rich foods, a supplement closes the gap reliably.
When to use it
Take in the morning with food. Selenium is a trace mineral that builds tissue stores slowly, so daily consistency matters more than exact timing.
How to use it
Take 1 capsule daily with breakfast and water. Do not exceed 400 mcg total selenium from all sources, since selenium has a narrow therapeutic range and excess can cause selenosis.
Pairs Well With
Strategic Cross-Sell
Neogenesis Raw Sea Moss-60 capsules
Sea moss provides iodine, the other cornerstone thyroid cofactor. Selenium and iodine work as a pair: iodine is the raw material for thyroid hormone, selenium drives its conversion to active form.
