Vitamin E, 100% Natural Form by Jarrow Formulas. Vitamin E is a fat soluble vitamin and is the major antioxidant that protects lipids in the body, including cell membranes and cholesterol, from oxidation. Air pollution or a high intake of dietary fats increases the requirement for Vitamin E.
100% Natural Form d-alpha Tocopherol
Protects Cell Membranes and Cholesterol from Oxidation*
Vitamin E 400 IU, Mixed (d-alpha tocopherol) by Natural Factors. 100% Natural source Vitamin E is a key nutrient for heart health, immune support and nerve and muscle function. This product contains additional tocopherols: beta, delta and gamma.
As a powerful antioxidant, Vitamin E is an essential ally against pollution, aging, toxins and other causes of free radical damage. This is a form which includes mixed tocopherols (alpha, beta, gamma and delta) which may contribute to a greater health effect than alpha tocopherol alone.
Mixed Vitamin E is mainly d-alpha tocopherol but retains a natural balance of d-beta, d-delta and d-gamma tocopherols naturally found in vegetable oils. This natural form of vitamin E has been extracted by cold pressing methods that do not damage the tocopherols. No chemical solvents are used.
Vitamin E (D-alpha-tocopherol) is a fat-soluble vitamin and a powerful antioxidant, protecting cell membranes from pollution, toxins and free radicals. Vitamin E is the major antioxidant in lipid body tissues and the primary defense against lipid peroxidation, particularly in tissues that contain high levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids, such as the brain and central nervous system. As an antioxidant, vitamin E may help protect against cardiovascular disease, some cancers, cataracts, premature aging and other chronic degenerative diseases. It also protects other vitamins (such as vitamins A and C) from oxidation. Vitamin E's ability to protect cell membranes makes it valuable for people in polluted environments and those with active lifestyles, as physical exertion increases production of free radicals. Approximately 400 IU of vitamin E reduces exercise-induced free radical damage and helps with athletic performance. Experts agree that obtaining adequate vitamin E from the daily diet is difficult and therefore recommend daily supplementation.
Men and women who supplement with at least 100 IU of vitamin E per day have a 37-41% drop in the risk of heart disease.
CHAOS (Cambridge Heart Antioxidant Study) reported a 77% drop in nonfatal heart attacks when people were given 400-800 IU of vitamin E per day.
Natural source vitamin E, designated by the prefix D, (D-alpha-tocopherol), is twice as bioavailable as synthetic vitamin E, designated by the prefix DL (DL-alpha-tocopherol).
All Natural Factors products are manufactured according to Canadian Health Protection Branch Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), among the highest standards in the world.
