This antioxidant combination of selenium and vitamins A, C and E strengthen the immune system as collaborative antioxidants, control blood pressure, regulate basal metabolism and help the production of prostaglandins. Free from sugar, lactose, yeast, gluten and wheat. Selenium is a key antioxidant nutrient and functions well with vitamin A and beta carotene, vitamin C and vitamin E. These specialised nutrients are called antioxidants because they prevent free radical damage to body cells due to oxidation. Selenium may have a balancing effect on the body by helping to control the production of prostaglandins (hormone like compounds that control many body functions). It may also have an important role in the body's basal metabolism and help to maintain a healthy blood pressure. Vitamin A is essential for maintaining good eyesight, healthy skin, tissue growth and bone development. A healthy immune system and proper growth and functioning of the reproductive cycle also rely heavily on this all important nutrient. Vitamin C is a potent natural protector, an indispensible nutrient involved in nearly 300 biochemical reactions. A powerful antioxidant and detoxifier, it appears to reduce the risk of viral attack. Vitamin C is also an essential co-factor for the metabolism of many other nutrients. As our bodies are unable to synthesise vitamin C and it is very easily destroyed, we must rely on a constant intake from either our diet or supplements. Vitamin C can help in the production of collagen--the body's building block for all connective tissue, cartilage, bones, teeth, skin and tendons, as well as help growth and repair of tissue and maintain normal blood fat and cholesterol levels. As a free radical scavenger and antioxidant, vitamin C provides a protective role and helps maintain the proper functioning of the immune system, aids haemoglobin and red blood cell production and assists in the absorption of the mineral Iron. Vitamin E, a fat soluble vitamin, is the most powerful antioxidant vitamin in the body. It helps prevent saturated fatty acids from forming harmful substances in the digestive tract, as well as de-furring artery walls. It also plays an essential role in the respiration of cells, forming muscle tissue and maximising the ability of muscles to use their oxygen supply, thus making it a very popular supplement with active people. Vitamin E is commonly used to help maintain healthy joints and is reputed to have anti-ageing properties and to help maintain sex drive (especially when taken with ginseng). Often used by women during the menopause, vitamin E also provides a protective role as a free radical scavenger and antioxidant, plays a key role in reproductive health. It also helps to maintain healthy skin and the health of capillary walls as well as strengthening blood vessels.
