Vitamin E

Promotes antioxidant protection and optimal cellular function. Source of antioxidants that help protect cells from oxidative damage caused by free radicals. Contributes to the maintenance of good health. Made with hypoallergenic ingredients. Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin that contains a family of compounds called tocopherols, which includes (+)-alpha-tocopherol, beta-tocopherol, delta-tocopherol, and gamma-tocopherol. Naturally occurring tocopherols ((+)-alpha-tocopherol, beta, and gamma) are the most biologically active forms of vitamin E. Vitamin E is essential for proper cellular function; it protects and supports a wide range of physiological functions through its free radical scavenging activity. An effective chain-breaking and free radical scavenging antioxidant, vitamin E is considered the first line of defense against lipid peroxidation. It protects the integrity of cell membranes and has the ability to bind to oxygen, preventing it from converting into toxic peroxide. Vitamin E (with mixed tocopherols) is designed to boost antioxidant protection.
