Vitamin E 400 IU Natural
Nature Made's® Vitamin E is an antioxidant that fights against damaging natural substances known as free radicals. It is incorporated into the fat-based tissues of the body, such as the heart, fat-carrier molecules like LDL (“bad” cholesterol), and our cell membranes, where it acts to stabilize these structures and protect them from free radical attack. Vitamin E also protects our cells from compounds such as lead, mercury and other heavy metals. Vitamin E is complimentary with Vitamin C in its function, therefore Vitamin E and Vitamin C should be taken together.
There are several natural compounds, called tocopherols, that demonstrate Vitamin E activity, but the natural form of Vitamin E (d-Alpha Tocopherol) is the most common and most potent form, and is absorbed best by the body. d-Alpha Tocopherol, or natural Vitamin E is the most active in terms of antioxidant activity. Because of Vitamin E’s strong antioxidant effects, supplementation exerts a protective effect in many common health conditions. Vitamin E d-Alpha is recommended to be part of a daily regimen.
