Highly bioavailable selenium increases the activity of protective enzymes such as glutathione peroxidase and superoxide dismutase. These enzymes accelerate the process of neutralising ROS, thus helping to reduce the associated damage. Several studies show that the production of heat stress proteins decreases when selenium is supplemented with highly available selenium sources. As a result, resources are freed up for the animals’ growth and production.
An additional benefit of highly available selenium is the improvement of meat quality (drip loss, shear strength, shelf life).
