Selenium is a trace element.

“Trace element” is a generic word for minerals whose concentration is typically very low, both in nature and in living organisms. The name comes from the abbreviation of the term “elements occurring in traces only”. This means in hardly detectable, minute amounts.
Even though we only need extremely small amounts of them, trace elements, including selenium, are of the utmost importance for our vital processes.

Interesting Fact:

Selenium was discovered in 1817 by Swedish chemist Jöns Jacob Berzelius, who named it after Selene, the Greek goddess of the moon. The name “Selenium” is derived from the Greek “selena,” meaning “moon”.
