Description
Vitamin E is a fat-soluble intracellular antioxidant, involved in stabilising unsaturated fatty acids.

These free radicals can be formed in periods of disease or stress in the body. Selenium is a component of the enzyme glutathione peroxidase, which plays an important role in the protection of cells by destroying oxidising agents like free radicals and oxidated unsaturated fatty acids.
