What is Tri-Selenium?
Metabolics Tri Selenium capsules contain a unique combination of three selenium forms making this a highly bioavailable Selenium supplement, meaning it is easily absorbed by the body.
These three forms are:
Sodium Selenate
Methylselenocysteine (MSC)
L Selenomethionine
The inorganic form, Sodium Selenate, is metabolised to sodium selenite in the body and the other two, MSC Methylselenocysteine and Selenomethionine, are organic forms.
Selenium in any form, whether from food or supplements, organic or inorganic, is utilized by the body for selenoprotein synthesis after first being metabolized to hydrogen selenide, the cellular storage form of selenium. Surplus selenium is converted to methylated metabolites and excreted via the urine and in the breath.
What is Tri-Selenium good for?

Who is Tri-Selenium for?
Tri-Selenium Capsules should not be used as a substitute for a varied diet.
Selenium can be obtained through diet with the different forms in Tri-Selenium Capsules being found in a variety of foods.
Methylselenocysteine is the predominant form of selenium, as an organic form, in allium and brassica plants including onions and garlic, and cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli and cabbage.
Selenomethionine is also an organic form and is formed in plants during the synthesis of the amino acid methionine, when selenium substitutes for sulfur and becomes incorporated into proteins in place of methionine. It is the predominant form of selenium in brazil nuts, cereals, legumes and fish. Selenate, as the only inorganic form in Tri-Selenium Capsules, is grown in seleniferous soil and is the predominant form of selenium in shellfish and vegetables that are not a part of the allium and brassica families.
Where you cannot obtain enough selenium through diet, Tri-Selenium Capsules are a way of increasing your selenium intake.
