This study was planned to investigate the physiological properties of vitamin E and selenium on the human body. Vitamins are substances necessary for the body to maintain its vitality and most of them cannot be synthesised in the body, so they must be supplied with nutrients. Vitamin E and selenium together play an important role in protecting cells from oxidative damage, maintaining tissue health and supporting general health. Ensuring adequate intake of both nutrients is important for optimal health.
Vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant, has been reported to protect cell membranes from oxidative damage, support the immune system and reduce inflammation. Selenium is an important trace element that enters the structure of antioxidants such as glutathione peroxidase and plays a vital role in enzymatic processes. However, Selenium is also important in the regulation of thyroid function. Selenium deficiency leads to cardiomyopathy types such as Keshan disease, and the immune system is weakened in deficiency. The synergistic effect of antioxidants such as vitamin E and selenium may reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as cancer, heart disease and neurodegenerative diseases by reducing oxidative damage at the cellular level. In this study, the sources, daily requirements and potential health effects of deficiencies of these antioxidants were discussed.

Bu çalışma E vitamini ve selenyumun insan vücudu üzerindeki fizyolojik özelliklerini incelemek amacıyla planlanmıştır. Vitaminler vücudun canlılığını sürdürmesi için gerekli olan maddelerdir ve çoğu vücutta sentezlenemez, bu nedenle besinlerle sağlanması gerekir. E vitamini ve selenyum birlikte hücrelerin oksidatif hasardan korunmasında, doku sağlığının korunmasında ve genel sağlığın desteklenmesinde önemli rol oynar. Her iki besinin de yeterli miktarda alınmasını sağlamak optimal sağlık için önemlidir.
Güçlü bir antioksidan olan E vitamininin hücre zarlarını oksidatif hasardan koruduğu, bağışıklık sistemini desteklediği ve inflamasyonu azalttığı belirtilmiştir. Selenyum glutatyon peroksidaz gibi antioksidanların yapısına giren ve enzimatik süreçlerde hayati rol oynayan önemli bir iz elementtir. Bununla birlikte, Selenyum tiroid fonksiyonlarının düzenlenmesinde de önemlidir. Selenyum eksikliği, Keshan hastalığı gibi kardiyomiyopati türlerine yol açmakla birlikte eksikliğinde bağışıklık sistemi zayıflar. E vitamini ve selenyum gibi antioksidanların sinerjik etkisi hücresel düzeyde oksidatif hasarı azaltarak kanser, kalp hastalıkları ve nörodejeneratif hastalıklar gibi kronik hastalıkların riskini azaltabilir. Bu çalışmada bu antioksidanların kaynakları, günlük gereksinimleri ve eksikliklerinin potansiyel sağlık üzerine etkileri tartışılmıştır.
