The National Selenium Supplement Project is a national health project initiated by the China Selenium Supplement Steering Committee by the Ministry of Health according to the actual situation of selenium deficiency in China. Its purpose is to publicize and popularize selenium knowledge, guide our people to supplement selenium correctly and reasonably, and promote the development, application and service of selenium biological resources.
Through cooperation with scientific research institutions, universities and manufacturers, the selenium supplement project effectively integrates talents, funds, materials and information, mobilizes all positive factors and favorable resources, and promotes the healthy, coordinated and steady development of China's selenium economy industry. Provide people with safe selenium-enriched products and ensure people's health.
The necessity of expanding information and supplementing selenium for the whole people "
Selenium is an essential trace element for human body, which has a wide range of biological effects, and has attracted the attention of oncologists and epidemiologists because of its potential tumor treatment or prevention function. However, the biological function of selenium in treating or preventing tumors is very complicated. Therefore, we can only comprehensively analyze the current research progress of selenium and tumor prevention and treatment from the aspects of epidemiological investigation, laboratory analysis and clinical intervention test.
Epidemiological investigation shows that the incidence and mortality of various cancers are negatively correlated with the geographical distribution of selenium, that is, the incidence and mortality of cancer in low selenium areas are higher, which shows that selenium in the environment is closely related to the occurrence and development of tumors.
Lu Ling made this suggestion after a long-term investigation. She introduced that selenium is known as the "fire of life" in the medical and nutritional circles at home and abroad, and is recognized by WHO and international nutrition organizations as one of the 14 essential trace elements in human bodies and animals. Selenium content in food and soil in an area is directly related to the incidence of cancer.
China is a country with serious selenium deficiency. Therefore, in order to effectively protect national health, it is suggested that the state should start the project of "selenium supplementation for all" as soon as possible when promoting the construction plan of healthy China, and further improve the work of "selenium supplementation for all". She suggested that "selenium supplementation for the whole people" should be included in the construction plan of healthy China (20 16~2020), and the health action plan of "selenium supplementation for the whole people" should be launched as soon as possible. According to the research results of selenium at home and abroad at present, and drawing lessons from foreign practices, it is concluded that selenium can produce anticancer effect in human body, and selenium intake can reduce the risk rate of some cancers. The US Food and Drug Administration should approve as soon as possible to allow selenium nutrition products to identify the anticancer properties of selenium.
People's Daily Online-Lu Ling, deputy to the National People's Congress: Start the selenium supplement project for everyone as soon as possible.
