Loselen is a soft gel capsule that combines selenium and iodine with BioPerine, a black pepper extract known to improve nutrient absorption, the company said. Each capsule contains 100 mcg of selenium, 100 mcg of iodine and 5 mg of BioPerine.
This formulation is beneficial for thyroid health, as BioPerine enhances selenium’s absorption into the body, ensuring the micronutrient is more effectively utilized for its role in activating and regulating thyroid hormones, thereby aiding thyroid function, per the brand. Additionally, studies suggest that selenium plays a key role in regulating iodine levels within the body, the company said.
FilmTec D3 is an oral dissolving film strip that delivers 2,000 IU of vitamin D3, a micronutrient for immune system support. Its immediate release formulation ensures adequate vitamin D intake, as there’s no water needed and each film is individually packed in ready-to-use, portable packaging. Vitamin D plays multiple roles in the body. It helps reduce inflammation, modulate cell growth, support neuromuscular and immune functions and regulate glucose metabolism. Studies also show that maintaining appropriate serum D3 levels can help sustain normal thyroid function, the company noted.
FilmTec B12 provides 500 mcg of vitamin B12 in a convenient ODF-strip format, specifically designed to support energy metabolism by ensuring adequate levels of this essential nutrient.

Vitamin B12 also is necessary for nerve tissue health, brain function and the production of red blood cells. Research also has found that a deficiency in vitamin B12 can correlate with elevated levels of anti-thyroid peroxidase and anti-thyroglobulin antibodies, further highlighting its importance for maintaining thyroid health, the company said.
Like Syrel and Thirodium, these products are now available for purchase on Amazon.
