Selenium IV Drip

🧬 What Selenium is generally known for

• A powerful antioxidant mineral
• Supports enzymes like glutathione peroxidase (big player in detox + cellular protection)
• Works closely with vitamin C, E, and glutathione—so it fits naturally into infusion blends

Immune system support 

• Helps regulate immune responses
• Often included in “immune boost” or recovery infusions
• Can support resilience during stress, illness, or post-viral fatigue 

Skin, hair & anti-ageing support

• Protects against oxidative stress (one of the main ageing drivers)
• Supports skin clarity and elasticity indirectly
• Sometimes paired with biotin, vitamin C, glutathione in “skin glow” blends

🔥 Thyroid & metabolism support

• Essential for thyroid hormone conversion (T4 → T3)
• Can support energy, metabolism, and overall balance
• Often relevant in clients with fatigue, sluggish metabolism 

🧠 Brain & mood support

• Linked to cognitive function and mood stability
• Helps reduce oxidative stress in the brain
• Sometimes included in “wellness” or “performance” drips

⚙️ Detox & cellular protection

• Supports detox pathways, especially alongside glutathione
• Helps protect cells from toxins and heavy metals
• Useful in “detox” or recovery-focused infusions

💧 Why it’s useful in IV therapy specifically

• Better bioavailability vs oral (selenium absorption can vary orally)
• Works synergistically in blends (not usually a standalone hero drip)
• Small doses can have system-wide effects due to its role in enzyme systems

⚖️ Practical vibe (from a clinic perspective)

• It’s not a “headline” ingredient like B12 or vitamin C
• But it’s a quiet optimiser—makes everything else work better
• Especially valuable in:
• Immune drips
• Skin/anti-ageing protocols
• Fatigue/metabolic support blends
• Detox/antioxidant stacks

👉 Works well alongside:

• Vitamin C
• Zinc
• B-complex
