About these minerals

Selenium, magnesium and zinc are three minerals that are vital to several bodily processes. Though they occur naturally in a variety of foods, many people take supplements to help increase their intake. Magnesium and zinc may boost your immune system and reduce inflammation. While inflammation is a normal immune response, chronic levels of it can damage your health and promote illnesses like cancer and heart disease.

Zinc plays an important role in the development and function of many immune cells. Supplementing with this mineral may help combat infections and aid wound healing.
