| 1. Life Link's Sodium Selenate 100mcg 100Caps | |
| Selenium is a chemical element that is essential, in small amounts, to humans and other living things. In the body it is found as part of the enzyme glutathione peroxidase, which helps to rid the body of destructive 'superoxide? molecules. Selenium deficiencies are common, since selenium concentrations depend strongly on locale and diet. Such deficiencies give rise to symptoms like those of aging: damaged tissues, increased arthritis, heart disease, and cancer. On the other hand, selenium is toxic when used to excess; the symptoms include hair loss, nail problems, accelerated tooth decay, and swelling of the fingers. Supplementation with sodium selenate at doses between 50 and 500 micrograms (mcg) per day will keep the average person within the safe range of selenium intake. Doses of more than 800 mcg/day carry a risk of toxicity. A number of different claims are often made for selenium . . . | |

| 5. Baywood's Beta-S 90Tabs | |
| What is Beta-sitosterol? Beta-sitosterol is a plant sterol similar in structure to cholesterol, found naturally in fruits, vegetables, beans (especially soy), nuts, and seeds. Phytosterols, (plant sterols) including beta-sitosterol, contain a complex of specific types of plant sterols known as sitosterolins, stigmasterol and campesterol. How does it work? Beta-sitosterol actually inhibits intestinal absorption of dietary cholesterol by competing for the limited space for cholesterol during intestinal uptake. It also affects an enzyme that results in the reduction of cholesterol rich lipoprotein, LDL. This can lower the LDL blood levels.
