What diseases are associated with selenium deficiency?
Selenium in living organisms becomes the amino acid selenocysteine and is part of about 25 proteins. These proteins play an important role in the functioning of spermatozoa and the formation of thyroid hormones. Also, they are involved in the processes of neutralization of free radicals and non-specific immune responses.
Selenium-containing enzymes are deficient in a number of conditions:
- heart diseases;
- male infertility;
- neurodegenerative diseases;
- irritable bowel syndrome.
Also, selenium enzymes can prevent the formation of blood clots and the development of atherosclerotic plaques, and in the case of a number of cardiovascular diseases, there is a lack of these enzymes. Selenium deficiency can look like hypothyroidism - a lack of thyroid hormones. After all, selenium is needed for the work of enzymes for the synthesis of these hormones. A permanent lack of selenium and iodine is associated with cretinism in children. Therefore, sometimes people with an enlarged thyroid gland are prescribed iodine and selenium preparations to prevent deficiency.
What does vitamin D do in the body:

- For overweight people, the combination of a low-calorie diet and sufficient vitamin D levels contributes to faster weight loss.
Why is it important to maintain vitamin K levels in the body:

Covid-19 is known to cause blood clotting and lead to the degradation of elastic fibers in the lungs. Vitamin K is the key to the production of specific proteins. Proteins, in turn, regulate clotting, increase blood flow, which helps protect the lungs.
