Selenium Yeast is a potent antioxidant that protects the body from tissue damage and supports cardiovascular, lung, prostate and colon health. It assists in maintaining a healthy immune system and is important for thyroid function. The anti-inflammatory properties reduce symptoms of arthritis, lupus, psoriasis and eczema, as well as protect against cataracts and macular degeneration. Selenium may also reduce the incidence and severity of cold sores and shingles. Jamieson's Selenium Yeast is derived from organic brewer's yeast that can be readily absorbed by the body.
