Selenium (formerly Selenomethionine)
Selenium is an essential mineral that supports heart health, thyroid function, and optimal immune function.
As a mineral cofactor, Selenium supports the body’s natural antioxidant systems, which protects against oxidative damage and supports healthy aging for your body and mind.
Selenium is an important trace mineral, and as an "essential" nutrient, your body does not produce selenium on its own. Therefore, it must come from diet or supplementation. Low levels of selenium can have an adverse impact on the heart, joints, eyes, and the immune, endocrine, and reproductive systems.
Maintaining an optimal selenium level supports normal cell function and differentiation, and healthy heart, connective tissue, eye, liver, and thyroid function. Selenium is a great mineral to help preserve a healthier body and support healthy living.
Thorne’s Selenium uses the purest form of selenium – bound to methionine for optimal absorption – without adding unnecessary additives or preservatives. Health benefits include:
Support for Thyroid Health
Selenium supports normal thyroid function in healthy individuals and is important for the proper functioning of the thyroid gland. It is also necessary for converting the thyroid hormone T4 (thyroxine) to the active T3 form (triiodothyronine). Healthy thyroid function benefits energy levels, metabolism, mood, and healthy hair and skin.
Supporting Healthy Aging
Selenium benefits powerful antioxidant functions in your body by supporting the glutathione and superoxide dismutase systems. Antioxidants like selenium help reduce oxidative damage in the body and brain caused by excess free radicals from environmental toxins, smoking, alcohol use, and stress, while supporting healthy skin, hair, and cognitive function.
Promoting Optimal Immune Function
Selenium plays an important role in the body’s immune health. Its antioxidant properties support a healthy inflammatory response and promote optimal immune function. Studies have shown that an optimal selenium level is associated with a healthy immune response.
Heavy metal protection
Selenium supplementation also might exert a protective effect against mercury, cadmium, and other toxic heavy metals.

Let customers speak for us
from 927 reviewsI have been coming here for years. They have always taken care of me each time with patience. A staple in the community and my life. Thank you.
You can find almost any kind of supplement here. And Brian is an absolute treasure; he's super-knowledgeable, and his suggestions and guidance have been extremely valuable!
Samento, Immune/Microbial Support
Started taking after neck fusion surgery to relieve pressure on nerves. Recovery had stalled and function was reduced in my right arm due to nerve damage. After starting Lion's Mane at Village Green's suggestion began to regain function with continued improvement over the next months. Also reduced frequency and severity of nerve 'blasts' in my leg from unrelated issue -- believe me, I take it every day!
My favorite bitters - will purchase again!
The Village Green Apothecary is the only place I go for prescription refills and supplements. They have experts available who answer your questions and take their time to help you find exactly what you need to support your overall wellbeing. Highly highly recommend checking them out.
It does what it is supposed to.
Can't say that about other products I have tried.
I've bought a lot of supplements from this store for probably decades. While recommended by my doctor originally, I continue to use them. While they are very busy, they are pleasant and very helpful. For someone who had lots of allergies to different ingredients, they had products I could tolerate. I used to shop only in person but now that I don't frequent their area, I use their mail order. Love them.
