Now let's think about children, our children, firstly, have problems with immunity, and secondly, they do not grow to their height, which is embedded in their DNA molecules.Children would be taller if they received zinc on time.Here is a cartogram of zinc deficiency in children under 5 years of age, and we can see that in Russia there is a deficiency of up to 20% of zinc, Ukraine - 20-30%, India, Sri Lanka, Central Africa - a colossal deficiency of more than 40%.That is, everyone has a deficit, it’s just that some people have a terrible deficit with this deficit, some more or less.We need it for bone formation, it is very important for growth and for the immune system.So, for zinc, remember to just have a picture - skin, hair, nails;for boys, potency, and for children, growth and immunity.This is very important.
Let's talk about selenium.For a long time, selenium could not be used at all, because it is actually toxic.It all depends on the form of selenium supply.The daily requirement for selenium is from 80 to 200 mcg.(still haven't agreed).It’s not even a milligram, a microgram is just a little bit.And some researchers say that when increased physical activity is from 800 to 1200 mcg.What does selenium do?Selenium, like zinc, is a powerful antioxidant, but it works in a trinity: selenium, vitamin E, vitamin C. If these three are combined, then we get very powerful protection against free radicals.Moreover, how it all works: vitamin E grabs the heel of the free radical itself, becoming a free radical (very aggressive), and vitamin C restores vitamin E, and it again becomes ours, you know.So selenium also does its own thing - selenium is necessary for the synthesis, for example, of thyroid hormones.Our thyroid gland makes T4 hormone, but this hormone is almost not working, for it to work, you need to tear off 1 atom of iodine from it and this is done by selenium-dependent dedinases and if the body is not strong enough, then the thyroid gland works, makes T4, but T4 does not turn into T3, the cells sit and suck their thumb from hunger, because everything is there - there is food, there is oxygen, but there is no T3 thyroid hormone, whichwould start a Krebs cycle, i.e.I started this fireplace in which all this would be burned.
It turns out that a person eats and stores fat, a person eats food and stores it as fat.The cell doesn’t understand anything, it says: “Why don’t they feed me, why does everything go to fat, why don’t you burn this food in the fireplace to produce energy?”She doesn’t know that she lacks a clockwork mechanism, and these are thyroid hormones.This is very important, so if you have ever had any malfunction of the thyroid gland, you should definitely add selenium.I never add selenium in its pure form and do not recommend it to anyone.For example, neoselenium is still sold in pharmacies - this is a toxic form of selenium.Neoselenium is as toxic as cyanide.Neoselen is still sold in the pharmacy chain.We use selenomethionine - an absolutely harmless, very useful form of selenium
