★★★★★ "I won't go back to high street supplements. The difference in quality is something you can actually feel." Susie
Selenium SeMSC Capsules give you selenium as methylselenocysteine, the form found in garlic, onions and broccoli. Each capsule provides 200mcg of selenium and you take one a day away from food. One pot holds 60 capsules, which is a 60 day supply.
Benefits of taking selenium
Selenium is a trace mineral your thyroid and immune system both rely on. Intake from UK food is often below the reference value. Unlike selenium methionine, this form is not stored in body proteins, so it is used more directly.
- Your thyroid gets the selenium it uses to make its hormones.
- Immune defences get the selenium they rely on.
- Hair and nails stay healthy.
- Cells get protection from oxidative stress.
Who benefits
Selenium SeMSC Capsules are most useful for:
- People who have been advised to take the methylselenocysteine form specifically.
- Anyone already taking selenium methionine who wants to alternate forms rather than combine them.
- Those who want selenium from the form found in garlic, onions and broccoli rather than a yeast or inorganic source.
For the food form that builds a selenium store, choose Selenium Methionine Capsules.
What is in it
Each capsule provides 200mcg of selenium as methylselenocysteine, which is 364% of the daily reference value. The other ingredients are cellulose, calcium phosphate and the vegetable capsule shell. Se-methylselenocysteine, MSC and SeMSC are other names for it.
How to take it
Take one capsule once a day, away from food. Keep to one a day and do not combine it with another selenium product.
Diet and allergens
The capsules are suitable for vegans and vegetarians. They are free from gluten, dairy and nuts.
Quality
The capsules are made in the UK in a GMP certified cleanroom facility accredited to ISO 9001 and ISO 14001. Every batch is traceable from raw material to finished product. Like every supplement Nutri Tailor stocks, they are practitioner grade and guaranteed additive free.
Common questions
How is SeMSC different from selenium methionine?
Selenium methionine is built into body proteins as a selenium store and is the form used in most thyroid research. Methylselenocysteine is not stored that way, because it is converted directly and cleared. Both give 200mcg of selenium per capsule.
How much selenium should I take a day?
Take one capsule a day, which gives you 200mcg. Selenium is a mineral where more is not better, so do not add another selenium product on top.
When is the best time to take it?
Take it at any time of day, away from food, as the label directs.
Can I take it with a multivitamin?
Only if the multivitamin does not already carry a full selenium amount, because the two add up. Check the label before you combine them.
Does selenium have side effects?
Not at one capsule a day. Problems come from too much selenium over time, which is why the label amount is the limit.
Why capsules rather than tablets?
A capsule is a cellulose shell around the powder, so it needs none of the binders or coating that hold a tablet together.

Frequently asked questions
What is Selenium SeMSC good for?
Selenium SeMSC provides an essential mineral supporting multiple body functions.
When should I take minerals?
Take with food for best absorption. Be aware of interactions.
How do I know if I need mineral supplementation?
A blood test is the most reliable way to assess status.
Can minerals interact with medications?
Yes, many minerals affect medication absorption. Space supplements from medications by 2-4 hours.
Who is Selenium SeMSC best for?
People who want the methylselenocysteine form of selenium specifically, usually on a practitioner's suggestion, people already taking selenomethionine who want to alternate forms rather than combine them, and anyone who wants selenium from the form found in garlic, onions and broccoli rather than a yeast or inorganic source. Keep to one capsule a day and do not combine it with another selenium product.
How is SeMSC different from selenomethionine?
Selenomethionine is built into body proteins as a selenium store and is the form used in most thyroid research. Methylselenocysteine is not stored that way; it is converted directly to methylselenol and cleared. Both give 200 mcg of selenium per capsule. Selenium contributes to normal thyroid function, normal immune function and the protection of cells from oxidative stress.
Why capsules rather than tablets?
Tablets need binders, fillers and a coating to hold their shape. A capsule is a cellulose shell around the powder, so it carries no binders and breaks down quickly once swallowed.
