Dr. Joel Wallach's American Longevity Colloidal Mineral Product What Product(s) Help ... Heart Disease? Selenium and Heart Disease Epidemiological studies have shown that persons with low-selenium diets have two-to-three times greater risk of heart disease than those eating selenium rich diets. In a clinical study, patients with blockage of all three coronary arteries had low blood selenium levels, while those with high blood selenium levels were healthy and free of coronary heart disease. Strikingly, those with one diseased coronary artery had the next highest blood selenium levels, and those with two blocked coronary arteries had the second lowest blood selenium levels. Clearly, the anti oxidant protection of the selenium - containing enzymes, GPX and PHGPX, protect the arteries and cholesterol-carrying lipoproteins against the damage that leads to heart disease. Background Selenium is an essential trace element for humans and other animals. Selenium was named after the moon goddess, Selene, by the Swedish chemist Jons Jakob Berzelius in 1817. Dr. Klaus Schwartz established selenium as an essential nutrient for animals in 1957, but the first selenium function in humans wasn't discovered until 1973. Dr. John Rotruck and his colleagues at the University of Wisconsin demonstrated that selenium was incorporated into molecules of an enzyme called glutathione peroxidase (GPX). This vital enzyme protects red blood cells, cell membranes and sub-cellular components against undesirable reactions with soluble peroxides. Majestic Earth Ultimate: Selenium is referred to by many as the 'wonder nutrient.'
