Sabinsa's product L-(+)-Selenomethionine continues to be popular with the nutritional industry. Interest in both grades of this product, viz. pure L-(+)-Selenomethionine (minimum 40% elemental selenium) and the triturated form (minimum 0.5% elemental selenium) has been strong by virtue of the inherent safety and superior bioavailability.
L-(+)-Selenomethionine contains selenium in the methionine molecule. Unlike "chelates" and "organically bound" selenium products currently marketed, L-(+)-Selenomethionine is a genuine organic form and does not convert to inorganic selenium in the body. In view of the role of organic selenium in the prevention of disease, L-(+)- Selenomethionine is the preferred form for selenium supplementation and is scientifically recognized as the most bioavailable form of selenium.
