Cell therapyexperimental
Selenium yeast is Saccharomyces cerevisiae grown in a selenium-rich media. It contains selenium in the form of organic and inorganic compounds. It is used both as a feed additive for livestock and as a dietary supplement for humans. It is approved in the US, EU, and the UK. Because selenium yeast can be patented, its producers can demand premium prices. — Wikipedia
