Selenium

In addition, it’s a component of more than 25 different proteins, called selenoproteins, which are necessary for a wide array of important physiological processes, including DNA synthesis and reproductive health

Selenium is naturally found in organ meats, brazil nuts, seafood, wheat germ and other foods. In dietary supplements you’ll typically find selenium in the form of selenomethionine, or as selenium-enriched yeast. Selenomethionine and selenium-yeast are safer, more stable, and more bioavailable than inorganic forms of selenium (e.g., selenite). Studies have shown that our bodies can absorb more than 90% of selenomethionine.
