The term “Vitamin E” refers to a
family of eight related, lipid-soluble, antioxidant compounds widely
distributed in plants. The tocopherol and tocotrienol subfamilies are each
composed of alpha, beta, gamma and delta vitamers having unique biological
effects. Different ratios of these compounds are found in anatomically
different parts of a plant. For example, the green parts of a plant
contain mostly alpha tocopherol and the seed germ and bran contain mostly
tocotrienols.
Natural vitamin E is an essential vitamin that helps boost the immune
system and promotes healthy cardiovascular function. It is also
beneficial in the maintenance of healthy brain cells and aids in most
aspects of a healthy body.
While 400 IU or more of supplemental vitamin E a day has been shown to
reduce the risk of heart attacks in healthy people, those with
pre-existing coronary artery disease often take 800 to 1600 IU a day based
on the pioneering work of the Shute brothers in the mid 1940s and other
studies that have continued to prove the benefits of high doses of vitamin
E.
The natural blend of vitamin E is up to a 3X more effective antioxidant
when compared to synthetic vitamin E.
