Vitamin E (also known as alpha tocopherol) is believed by many to be the most important antioxidant in our bodies. Our 400iu Vitamin E capsule is the level most often recommended by health nutritionists. Research by health professionals has suggested that it plays a key role in helping to maintain cardiovascular health, the reason behind this is that it is believed to help good poly-unsaturated fats from being oxidised and changed into saturated fats. Vitamin E also supports the bodies protection against oxidative stress caused by toxins and chemicals.
Found in every cell of our bodies, Vitamin E has powerful antioxidant properties that help protect the cells of the body from damage by free radicals. Vitamin E may also - as part of a healthy diet and lifestyle - help maintain a healthy heart and circulatory system.
The beauty industry has noted its benefits too, and many skin (and sun) care preparations boast their Vitamin E content. Vitamin E is found in only a few foods and these foods are usually high in fat, so people following a low-fat diet may also benefit from taking a supplement.
Vitamin E can be obtained from our diets but it is easily destroyed in food cooking. In its natural form (as d-alpha tocopherol) our supplement in a convenient capsule form helps ensure that you can obtain enough of this vitamin.
