Why you may want to supplement your diet with vitamin E tocotrienols
What’s the big difference among vitamin E supplements? Most of the time, the vitamin E found in multi-vitamins or alone as supplements is vitamin E tocopherols. These have much different benefits in the body than the vitamin E tocotrienols, found abundantly in products made with Malaysian red palm oil.
Why does this matter? Studies have shown that alpha-tocotrienol is 40 to 60 times more potent as an antioxidant than alpha-tocopherol. Other studies have shown that tocotrienols are beneficial for cholesterol management, maintaining healthy arteries, reducing our risk of blood clots, promoting healthy skin, reducing cancer risk and helping to protecting our brains in case of stroke.
