In July 1980 I was advised by my doctor, because of my poor health, to take 400iu of Vitamin E every day for the rest of my life and, in times of illness, to double the dose. I have followed his instructions and am happy to report that I am still in reasonable health and will be 80 this year.
Our Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that helps to protect cells from damage. We are exposed to damage daily, through chemicals and pollution etc. This is where vitamin E can play a vital role in protecting us, especially our cardiovascular system and our immune system. This role makes it an important nutrient to protect from many common degenerative diseases prevalent in modern society.
Vitamin E can also fight off free radicals on the skin, which are a result of daily environmental stressors like unprotected sun exposure. In fighting off free radicals, Vitamin E helps protect the skin from damage. This antioxidant can help calm inflammation and even skin tone as well as being effective at slowing the visible ageing of the skin.
Vitamin E has been used to help balance hormones, regulate the menstrual cycle, and support the nervous system.
Vitamin E is found naturally in various foods and oils such as sunflower seeds, wheat germ oil, hazelnuts, and almonds. These contain high amounts of alpha-tocopherol, and significant amounts are also available in green leafy vegetables and fortified cereals. Vitamin E can be absorbed better when combined with vitamin C.
