Selenium Associations with Hypertension and T2D: Gender Dependent Findings

Abstract

Ronald Gross

Selenium, a trace element crucial for human well-being, has long captured the attention of researchers due to its potential impacts on various aspects of health. In a recent study featuring 1500 senior participants from the Berlin Aging Study II (BASE-II), scientists have unveiled a captivating revelation: selenium demonstrates a U-shaped association with hypertension in men. This discovery not only underscores the intricate interplay between micronutrients and cardiovascular health but also prompts a closer examination of the underlying factors influencing selenium's effects on hypertension. BASE-II, an extensive investigation of aging, encompasses a diverse cohort of over 1500 individuals aged 60 to 84 years. This rich demographic diversity has enabled researchers to delve into various facets of aging, health, and the risk of diseases, offering valuable insights into the complex relationship between selenium and hypertension in the male population.
