Description Grassberg Selenium 100 µg – a reliable form of selenium in organic form Grassberg Selenium 100 mcg contains 100 µg of pure L-selenomethionine, an organic form of selenium that contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress and the normal function of the thyroid and immune system. L-selenomethionine is molecularly close to the natural selenium that we take in with food, is extremely well absorbed and can accumulate in the body with gradual release. Why choose L-selenomethionine? L-selenomethionine is an organic form of selenium, the L-form that is better absorbed and more frequently used in the body compared to inorganic or mixed forms, so compared to other forms available in dietary supplements, it has a comparatively more efficient absorption and is retained in the body for longer. It is better integrated into proteins, and thanks to its gradual release, it serves as a reserve form of selenium in the body. The organic form of selenium is less toxic and has a higher bioavailability (85–95%) compared to inorganic forms (40–50%).
