Liquid Selenium Supplement's Role in the Body
Selenium, a crucial trace mineral and antioxidant, is vital for thyroid health. Insufficient selenium levels can lead to thyroid issues, as it, alongside iodine, is key for the thyroid's proper functioning.
Without adequate selenium, the thyroid struggles to regulate its iodine levels. Studies have also suggested that thyroid problems might stem from a lack of Glutathione. Liquid selenium helps in maintaining healthy levels of Glutathione.
Why is it better to take selenium in a liquid drop form?
When taken in liquid form, the body is able to absorb it better, faster, and at higher amounts than a capsule or pill. Liquid selenium in addition is easier to take than a standard pill that can be difficult to swallow and is better for individuals who have difficulty absorbing nutrients.
