SELENOMETHIONINE 120 CPR

Selenium is an oligo-element that is essential for human health. A good example of this is the area around Keshan (China), where you can use a selenium tank to store it. Selenium is harmful to the production of various glutathione peroxides (cytosolic, plasma and gastrointestinal). Selenium is also essential for the production of thioredoxin reductase, which is a highly concentrated component of thioredoxin, regenerated by thioredoxin peroxides and by enzymes that reduce the breakdown of proteins. Ten slotte, maakt selenium deel uit van de selenoproteïne P die het peroxynitriet vernietigt, dat geproduceerd wordt door gestresseerde macrofagen of neuronen. Dit peroxynitriet kan de proteïnen oxideren en de tyrosinen van de proteïnen nitreren. These different enzyme systems contribute to the antioxidant activity of the organism and prevent veto-peroxidation. Selenium also plays a role in the functioning of enzymes from the family of deiodinasen, which play a role in beschikbaarheid and the functioning of schildklierhormonen. Experts beweren dat de ADH van selenium tussen 75 en 200 g ligt, of ongeveer 1 g/kg, terwijl de gemiddelde inname in België 55 g per dag bedraagt.
