Selenium (2500 ppm) — from Mustard Seed

With-Meal Capsule: 20–80 mg powder with food provides ≈50–200 µg selenium (2500 ppm = 2.5 µg/mg). Keep the same mealtime daily for consistency.

Sachet To-Go: Pack 20–80 mg sticks; mix into citrus water or smoothies for a tidy, repeatable habit.

Gummies: To deliver ≈50–100 µg selenium per 4 g gummy, use ≈20–40 mg powder (≈0.5–1.0% w/w); pilot flavour/acid balance.

Smoothie Add-In: 25–40 mg into a breakfast smoothie for an easy daily stack.

Stack Idea: Pair the serving with a steady vitamin E routine or general antioxidant blend; adjust one variable at a time and track comfort.

Plant-Derived Source: Mustard seed origin suits clean-label builds.

Predictable Micro-Dosing: 2500 ppm (0.25%) simplifies µg math across formats.

Format-Friendly: Neutral taste and fine texture work in capsules, gummies, sachets and smoothies.

Clean & Compact: Standardized strength supports tidy formulation without stimulants.

Serving Size: 1 capsule or scoop (≈ 20–80 mg powder)

Ingredients: Selenium (2500 ppm) Extract Powder (from Brassica nigra seeds)

Does Not Contain: Added sugar, caffeine, artificial colours

Allergen Information: Vegan; gluten-free; dairy-free. Seed-derived; review if sensitive to Brassicaceae-family plants.

Usage Recommendation: Take 20–80 mg once daily with meals (≈50–200 µg selenium). If stacking with other actives, add one change at a time and space ~90 minutes from medications as a routine practice.

Storage Advice: Store cool, dry & dark. Keep tightly sealed away from direct sunlight.

Keep Away From Children

Q: How do I place plant-derived Selenium (2500 ppm) into a simple daily routine?

A: Make it a same-time, with-meal habit and keep other variables steady so your read is clean. A practical start is 20–80 mg powder with your most reliable meal, delivering roughly 50–200 µg selenium at ≈2.5 µg per mg. Hold that serving for two to four weeks before adjusting, and log adherence instead of chasing bigger numbers. If you use multiple products that include selenium, total them up so you stay within your intended range. Consistency beats tinkering; one change at a time makes evaluation clearer and more honest over real-world days.

Q: What’s the practical difference between mustard-seed selenium and common mineral salts for formulation?

A: This ingredient supplies standardized selenium within a botanical seed matrix from Brassica nigra, which many formulators prefer for clean-label positioning and a familiar source story. Conventional salts (e.g., sodium selenite/selenate, selenomethionine) provide compact dosing and well-known specs but may influence taste or require tighter handling. Choose by build and audience: capsules favor precision and tiny servings, while gummies and sachets favor ease and adherence. Whatever you pick, lock timing with meals, document pilot variables (acids, flavours, dispersion), and avoid frequent product switches that blur evaluation and complicate SOPs during scale-up.

Q: How do I set gummy strength without overcomplicating the formula?

A: Decide your per-gummy target—50 or 100 µg—then back-calculate powder using ≈2.5 µg per mg. That’s ≈20 mg or ≈40 mg powder in a 4 g pectin gummy (≈0.5–1.0% w/w). Keep acids and flavours consistent, disperse thoroughly to avoid hot spots, and document every batch variable. Store cool and dry; moisture, oxygen and light can affect color and actives. Run a small stability check (assay, taste, colour) before scaling, then lock your SOP once pilots meet sensory and uniformity targets you can reproduce across production runs.

Q: Can I stack Selenium with vitamin E or zinc without complicating the plan?

A: Yes—anchor one serving first: 20–80 mg Selenium 2500 ppm with a consistent meal for two to four weeks. If adding vitamin E or zinc, keep timing and portions steady and separate new changes by at least a week so you can attribute any differences. Leave ~90 minutes from medications as a routine practice, track comfort and adherence in a simple log, and prioritize a routine that fits busy days. Adjust gradually rather than making multiple changes at once; your goal is durable habits and clear evaluation over time.
