Zipvit Selenium 200 mcg with Vitamins C, A and E comes in a pack of 180 tablets, an antioxidant formula pairing a trace mineral with three vitamins that work with it as one system rather than in isolation. Bringing these four together in a single tablet is the logic of the formula, because antioxidants in the body take turns restoring one another to their working form. It is aimed at anyone concerned with protecting cells from oxidative stress and with hair, nail and immune health.
What is selenium?
Selenium is a trace mineral the body needs in precise amounts measured in micrograms rather than milligrams, and it is built into more than twenty human proteins known as selenoproteins. Selenium reaches food through the soil, and Brazil nuts, seafood and whole grains are among its richest natural sources.
Benefits of selenium with vitamins C, A and E
- Protecting cells from oxidative stress: Selenium is built into enzymes that neutralise peroxides inside the cell.
- Thyroid support: Selenium contributes to normal thyroid function through enzymes that depend on it.
- Hair and nail support: Selenium contributes to maintaining hair and nails in their normal condition.
- Immune support: Selenium and vitamin C both take part in the normal function of immune cells.
- Normal vision support: Vitamin A is associated with maintaining normal vision and healthy mucous membranes.
- Cell membrane protection: Vitamin E works inside the fatty layer of the cell membrane, where a water-soluble antioxidant cannot reach.
- Collagen support: Vitamin C acts as a cofactor for the enzymes that build collagen fibres.
Active ingredients
- Selenium 200 mcg: The central element of the formula, built into the selenium-dependent antioxidant enzymes.
- Vitamin C: A water-soluble antioxidant working in cellular fluids that also restores vitamin E to its working form.
- Vitamin A: A fat-soluble vitamin tied to normal vision and to the integrity of epithelial tissue.
- Vitamin E: A fat-soluble antioxidant protecting the unsaturated fatty acids of cell membranes.
How selenium works in the body
Selenium is not a direct antioxidant on its own; it is incorporated as a special amino acid called selenocysteine into the active site of the enzyme glutathione peroxidase. That enzyme converts hydrogen peroxide and lipid peroxides into water and harmless alcohols, stopping the chain oxidation reaction inside the membrane. This is where the logic of combining all four becomes clear: vitamin E halts the chain within the lipids, vitamin C regenerates vitamin E, and selenium powers the enzyme that clears the resulting products.
What makes this formula different
The Zipvit formula brings selenium at 200 mcg together with vitamins C, A and E in one tablet, rather than buying four separate supplements and taking them at scattered times. The value here is chemical complementarity rather than headcount, because these elements cover two different phases inside the cell: a watery phase where vitamin C works, and a fatty phase where vitamin E and vitamin A work. The tablet form holds up to long storage, and 180 tablets last 180 days at one tablet daily.
Who is this product for?
- Anyone wanting core antioxidant coverage from one supplement instead of four.
- Anyone tracking hair and nail health who notices weakness and breakage.
- Anyone living where the soil is low in selenium, so dietary intake runs low.
- Smokers and city dwellers exposed to a higher oxidative load.
How to use
Take one tablet daily with water. It is better taken with a meal containing some fat, because vitamin A and vitamin E in this formula are fat-soluble and absorb better in the presence of a fatty medium.

Frequently asked questions
Why is selenium measured in micrograms rather than milligrams?
Selenium is a trace mineral the body needs in very small amounts compared with minerals such as calcium and magnesium. That is why its dose is written in micrograms, a unit equal to one thousandth of a milligram.
Why are vitamins C, A and E combined with selenium?
These elements act at different sites inside the cell and complement one another rather than overlap. Vitamin E protects the fatty phase, vitamin C works in the watery phase and regenerates vitamin E, and selenium powers the enzyme that clears the peroxides produced.
What are the natural dietary sources of selenium?
Brazil nuts are among the richest natural sources of selenium of all. Seafood and whole grains follow, and their content varies with how selenium-rich the soil they grew in happened to be.
