Selenium

Selenium is an essential trace mineral critical for antioxidant defense, thyroid function, and immune regulation. It plays a key role in the production of selenoproteins, which help protect cells from oxidative stress and support the conversion of thyroid hormones (T4 to active T3). Selenium is also involved in detoxification processes and helps modulate inflammatory and immune responses.
