Selenium is an essential mineral and antioxidant for the human body. This micronutrient increases good cholesterol levels and lowers bad cholesterol and thins the blood, reducing the risk of blood clots forming in the arteries that fill the heart and brain. It is also important for women's health.

This element is contained in many foods. But its concentration often depends on the composition of the soil on which it was grown. The record for selenium content is the Brazilian nut. This mineral is also found in seafood, cereals, legumes, dairy products, meat and offal.

For normal life, it is necessary to receive at least 50 μg of the element with food per day. And this is not always possible. It is possible to solve this issue with the help of vitamin complexes containing selenium. Our experts conducted a comparative analysis and made a rating of the best of them from foreign and domestic producers.
