SéMét contains selenomethionine, the natural form of the mineral selenium absorbed by the body from dietary sources. It is the primary form of selenium stored in the body and is therefore used more efficiently than other forms. It is absorbed 1.5 to 2 times better than selenite, a form commonly found in other supplements.
Selenium levels in plant-based foods are unpredictable, as they vary depending on the selenium content of the soil, making it important to supplement with the absorbable and effective form of selenium to obtain its health benefits. Selenium is necessary for immune function, to support the production of glutathione—a powerful antioxidant—and to stimulate immune cell activity. Selenium supplementation is important for individuals who want to promote immune system health and normal cell growth, especially since soil is depleted of selenium in many parts of North America.
AOR offers selenium in the form of selenomethionine, a less toxic and more potent form of selenium. Selenium's power in fighting cancer is linked to its ability to be converted to methylselenol. SeMet is directly and easily converted to this important metabolite, making it one of the best forms of selenium available. AOR's SeMet is provided to you with the Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) of 55 mcg per capsule, with 90 capsules per bottle, allowing for flexible dosing options.
