Selenium IV Therapy in Hitchin, Hertfordshire
Selenium is an essential mineral required in small amounts for several important bodily functions. It helps protect cells from oxidative stress, contributes to normal thyroid function and supports normal immune system activity.
At SkinInspire in Hitchin, our nurse-led clinic offers consultations for Selenium IV therapy. Because the body only requires limited quantities of selenium, we take care to assess individual nutritional needs and treatment suitability before proceeding.
What Are the Benefits of Selenium?
Selenium contributes to normal thyroid function by supporting enzymes involved in thyroid hormone metabolism. It also forms part of the body’s antioxidant defence system, helping protect cells from oxidative damage.
This essential mineral plays a role in maintaining normal immune function, as well as the maintenance of healthy hair and nails. Most people obtain sufficient selenium through foods such as fish, meat, eggs and certain nuts.
Although adequate selenium is important, taking additional amounts does not necessarily provide further benefits. Excessive intake can be harmful, making professional assessment particularly important before intravenous treatment.

Understanding Selenium and Nutritional Balance
Selenium is a good example of why maintaining the right nutritional balance matters more than simply increasing vitamin or mineral intake. Both inadequate and excessive levels can cause problems, and individual requirements can vary. Our qualified nurse will discuss relevant health considerations and help establish whether additional selenium is appropriate.
