Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant essential to combat cell damage caused by free radicals. ProHealth's natural Vitamin E with Mixed Tocopherols contains all four members of the tocopherol family of compounds, making it more nutritionally complete. This natural form of vitamin E is the most powerful and effective form of this antioxidant because it is the easiest form for your body to absorb.
Antioxidants like vitamin E work to protect your body's cells against the effects of free radical damage. Free radicals are the potentially harmful by-products of the body’s metabolism that can affect cells. Vitamin E is a powerful free radical scavenger that can neutralize free radicals before they become dangerous. Each of the tocopherols in this formula has specific antioxidant activity. Alpha tocopherols, for example, inhibit production of free radicals while gamma tocopherols trap and neutralize existing free radicals. Tocopherols optimize vitamin E's antioxidant activity to provide you with the most potent and effective form of this essential vitamin.
The antioxidant vitamin E plays an important role protecting cell membranes and other fat soluble parts of the body by neutralizing free radicals. It is also helpful in monitoring and promoting a healthy heart.
