A Superior Source of Organic Selenium
Evidence from over the last 20 years indicates that the form of dietary selenium is key to its efficiency. This has led to an industry-wide shift toward safer, organic forms of selenium and a move away from the traditional inorganic form of sodium selenite. Selenite’s high toxicity, pro-oxidant properties and bioavailability have caused the industry to question its use.
Sel-Plex® is Alltech’s proprietary organic form of selenium yeast. It is an excellent dietary source of selenium and is manufactured to mimic Mother Nature. The selenium from Sel-Plex is safer and better able to meet the higher requirements of livestock raised for rapid growth, reproductive performance and health.
Sel-Plex:
• Is an excellent/superior source of selenium.
• Is Alltech’s proprietary organic form of selenium yeast manufactured to mimic nature.
• Is the only U.S. Food and Drug Administration-reviewed and the first European Union-approved form of organic selenium.
• Supported by more than 19 years of research, Sel-Plex is also the most researched and proven form of organic selenium.
• The selenium in Sel-Plex is in the same form naturally present in plants.
• Sel-Plex selenium is more digestible than inorganic forms.
• Allows animals to build nutrient reserves against periods of increased demand.
• Has higher bioavailability than inorganic sources.
• Requires lower levels of inclusion than inorganic sources to achieve the same results.
• The selenium in Sel-Plex is better absorbed, stored and utilized by the animal than inorganic selenium.
• Supports mineral retention.
• Optimizes animal performance.
• Helps maintain the body’s defense system.
• Boosts selenium status reliably and safely.
• Is better able to meet the higher nutrient needs of modern livestock raised for rapid growth, maximum reproductive performance and animal health.
