Does L-Selenocysteine Help With L-Selenocysteine is a naturally occurring amino acid that...?

Evidence Summary

L-Selenocysteine is a naturally occurring amino acid that contains selenium — an essential trace mineral. In laboratory and animal studies, it has shown antioxidant activity, the ability to trigger cancer cell death (apoptosis) in liver cancer cell lines, and potential to counteract heavy metal toxicity like mercury poisoning. It has also been explored as a building block for selenium-delivery compounds (prodrugs) that may protect against certain toxins. However, none of these effects have been tested in human clinical trials based on the available research.
