Selenium is a trace element and part of more than 20 selenoproteins that play vital roles in supporting thyroid hormone metabolism, DNA synthesis, reproduction and more. Selenium exists in two forms, inorganic and organic. The organic form selenomethionine is the form most found in human and animal tissue and is mostly stored in skeletal muscle. 
In the human body, Selenium has chemical or enzymatic functions, well as structural roles. Selenium is best-known as an antioxidant and for serving as a catalyst in the production of active thyroid hormone. It plays an essential part in the balance and support of immune system function, promotes sperm motility, helps maintain positive mood, and supports heart health.
Depleted or low selenium levels are cause for concern due to the variety of functions dependent on maintaining healthy levels.
Selenium glycinate is the superior form of selenium due to its bioavailability and enhanced absorption. This chelated form of selenium has a high level of stability, which allows it to avoid other minerals and foods that compete for absorption in the GI system.
