If you are prescribed Levi & Liothyronine - do you still benefit from taking selenium?

If you do not have enough, yes!

Although we are perhaps very familiar with selenium being a constituent of the main three deiodinase enzymes (DIO1, DIO2 and DIO3), it is also required in many other areas.

Selenium, which is nutritionally essential for humans, is a constituent of more than two dozen selenoproteins that play critical roles in reproduction, thyroid hormone metabolism, DNA synthesis, and protection from oxidative damage and infection.
