Vitamin E and Selenium Products with accurate information on their active forms and precise concentrations and combinations are provided for optimal function of the biochemical pathways at cellular level, to help prevent and delay the degenerative diseases of aging. A little bit of prevention now, is worth so much more, later in life. Vitamin E One of the most important nutrients, and a potent antioxidant, Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin. Vitamin E protects the lipids and other vulnerable components of the cell and their membranes from destruction by oxidation. Vitamin E acts synergistically with the mineral Selenium, protecting cell membranes against oxidative damage. Accumulating evidence suggests that Vitamin E may reduce the risk of heart disease by protecting LDL against oxidation. Oxidized LDL has been known to be a major factor in the development of coronary artery diseases. Vitamin E was originally found to be necessary for reproduction and improves physical and sexual performance. Vitamin E may normalize the activity of the ovaries in women hence improving periods and preventing excessive bleeding and vaginal dryness and may help relieve menopausal symptoms. Selenium Studies have shown that Selenium is protective against cancer and that increased selenium level is associated with decreased cancer incidence and decreased cancer mortality. This trace metal activates glutathione peroxidase, an enzyme with significant antioxidant activity. Selenium has been extensively studied in the prevention and treatment of cancer. There is strong evidence between low Selenium intake and high cancer incidence. Selenium helps to increase the effectiveness of Vitamin E, and acts as an antioxidant to protect cells from the free radical damage that causes aging and is linked to many age-related diseases. Selenium may help prevent heart disease by increasing levels of HDL the good cholesterol and lowering the levels of LDL and reduce heart attack and stroke risk by decreasing the “stickiness” of the blood, and therefore reducing the risk of blood clots. Disabling chronic diseases develop over a long period of time when harmful factors interact together. Take advantage of the latest research and published knowledge to prevent cancer and cardiovascular diseases and improve the quality of your life.
