SELENIUM
Selenium is highly valued for its natural antioxidant powers and is known to retard aging and help preserve tissue elasticity by neutralizing harmful oxidative reactions in the cells. It is required for the maintenance of fertility, the functioning of the eye, the heart and the immune system. Research studies indicate that selenium can be helpful in inhibiting tumor formation and heart disease.Depending on the soil content, selenium can be found in brazil nuts, brewer's yeast, broccoli, brown rice, chicken, dairy products, garlic, liver, meat, molasses, onions, salmon, seafood, tuna, vegetables, wheat germ and whole grains.
The main deficiency symptom is premature aging, but deficiencies have also been linked to infertility, arthritis and lowered intelligence.
