Selenium is an essential trace mineral that is required for many important biochemical functions in the body. In humans, selenium functions as a coenzyme for the antioxidant enzyme glutathione peroxidase. Glutathione peroxidase helps neutralize harmful peroxide free radicals. Selenium also plays an important role in the production of thyroid hormones. Selenium is a coenzyme for the enzymes which are responsible for the synthesis of thyroid hormones. These enzymes are important for the regulation of basal metabolic rate (resting metabolic rate-rate at which you burn calories). Studies show Selen Excell® helps support the body’s antioxidant defenses and contributes to the growth of normal, healthy cells.†



Features
Provides 200mcg of selenium.
Natural form of selenium in 100% organically bound form. Yeast converts inorganic (low bioavailability) forms of selenium into organic (high bioavailability) forms.
SelenoExcell® provides a full composition of seleno compounds including selenomethionine and selenocysteine.
FDA has approved health claims for selenium that indicate it may be helpful in preventing certain cancers.
SelenoExcell® has been selected as the sole intervention agent in a series of cancer prevention (colon, lung, and prostate) and health-related studies.
Based on a Clinical Trial Agreement with The National Cancer Institute, leading research teams have selected SelenoExcell® based on its certification as 100% organically bound selenium and strictly controlled quality and production parameters.


Benefits
Provides a well-absorbed, highly bioavailable form of this important trace mineral.
Studies show selenium works synergistically with vitamin E to provide antioxidant support helping protect healthy cells, particularly red blood cells from free radical damage.†
The broad composition of seleno compounds increases the absorption and bioavailability.
Selenium helps support the functioning of the powerful antioxidant enzyme glutathione peroxidase (GPX). GPX helps neutralize damaging peroxide radicals, which can potentially cause damage to healthy cells and their DNA.†
Studies show a high intake of selenium helps support a healthy prostate by promoting normal, healthy prostate cell growth.†
Adequate intake of selenium helps support normal, healthy thyroid function and a healthy metabolism.†
Some scientific evidence suggests that consumption of selenium may reduce the risk of certain forms of cancer.†

Like vitamins, minerals are essential nutrients only obtained from our diet. Unlike vitamins where some may be manufactured by the body in small amounts, minerals MUST be obtained from food and or supplements. Minerals play a variety of roles including structural (calcium), enzyme reactions (magnesium, zinc), and synthesis (red blood cells-iron, copper). Although they are essential to health, recent studies conclude that most people fail to meet the recommended requirement for minerals. Therefore, supplementing with all essential minerals in one complete formula, our Ultra Minerals, ensures adequate daily intake.



Features
A high potency mineral complex providing a comprehensive blend of macro and trace minerals
Provides an easy way to meet the body’s daily mineral requirements
Utilizes chelated minerals to support optimal absorption. Chelated minerals have greater absorption and bioavailability than non-chelated minerals.
Contains a non-constipating form of iron.
Contains L- OptiZinc® brand of zinc, a form of zinc that has several studies to support its efficacy and safety.
The only form of zinc that when taken in high amounts does not interfere with copper absorption.
Contains ChromeMate® brand chromium. ChromeMate® is a biologically active niacin- bound chromium that dramatically increases the safety and effectiveness of chromium.
Provides supplemental nutrients to aid in digestion and absorption of minerals.


Benefits
Calcium helps to form strong, healthy bones and teeth, and is also required for muscle contraction.†
Magnesium supports the relaxation of muscle tissue and, along with zinc is essential for the activity of numerous (over 300) enzymes.†
Zinc helps maintain a healthy immune system and is especially important for neurological and prostate function, as well as DNA synthesis.†
Iron and copper are essential for the synthesis of normal, healthy red blood cells along with the delivery of oxygen to healthy cells*.
Several studies demonstrate the role of ChromeMate® chromium in glucose metabolism, insulin function and blood glucose levels.†
Vitamin D is included for its role in the absorption, utilization and retention of calcium and phosphorus, as well as its role in healthy cell production and insulin function.†
Betaine hydrochloride provides an environment for enhanced absorption of minerals.†

Saccharomyces boulardii, commonly referred to as S. boulardii, is a tropical species of yeast that was isolated from the lychee and mangosteen fruit in 1923 by French scientist Henri Boulard. Boulard first isolated the yeast after he observed natives of Southeast Asia chewing on the skin of lychee and mangosteen in an attempt to control the symptoms of cholera. In healthy patients, S. boulardii has been shown to be nonpathogenic and nonsystemic, meaning it remains in the gastrointestinal tract rather than spreading elsewhere in the body. S. boulardii is a strain of S. cerevisiae (baker’s yeast) and is sometimes used as a probiotic with the purpose of introducing beneficial microbes into the large and small intestines, and to support protection against pathogens. Today, supplemental Saccharomyces Boulardii is commonly used in acute gastrointestinal conditions helping to support intestinal health, travelers’ diarrhea, and antibiotic-associated diarrhea (AAD) in adults and children.



Features
S. boulardii strain is Non-GMO Project Verified by Gnosis USA Inc., this supplement is under review for product Non-GMO verification.
High potency at 5 billion viable cells per capsule guaranteed to expiration date.
Contains 200mg of the prebiotic fiber, Fructooligosaccharide (FOS).
Free of major food allergens; milk, egg, fish, shellfish, wheat, gluten, peanuts, soy, tree nuts.


Benefits
Used for its ability to support gastrointestinal health and occasional diarrhea.†
May support the treatment of antibiotic-associated diarrhea in children and adults.†
