Selenium is an essential mineral that occurs naturally in food, both in plant and animal sources. The amount in plants depends on the selenium concentration in the soil. Our L-selenomethionine supplement provides a standardized source of selenium, reducing the impact of dietary variation.
L-selenomethionine is an organic form of selenium, bound to the amino acid methionine, which is readily absorbed during protein metabolism. Compared to some other forms, such as selenium from yeast, L-selenomethionine is absorbed directly as part of amino acid combinations. The capsules are easy to take and can be incorporated into a varied diet.

They are covered with numerous red, sticky tentacles containing glandular tissue. These tentacles catch small insects such as Simuliidae. Once an insect touches the tentacles, the leaf coils around the insect and secretes digestive enzymes. The released nutrients, including nitrogen, are absorbed by the plant.
