Natural source Vitamin E to ensure maximum bioavailability to help protect against cell damaging 'free radical' molecules.
Natural Vitamin E is a powerful natural Antioxidant whose form is easily destroyed by canning and freezing. Antioxidants help protect against cell damage from reactive molecules in our bodies known as 'Free Radicals'. These arise from exposure to all manner of pollutants, as well as being normal bodily by-products. Current research in the USA suggests that a daily dose of 400iu (as provided here) could also help maintain a healthy heart, blood vessels and healthy skin.
Healthspan's Natural Vitamin E is made wholly from vegetable oils. The Synthetic form is called DL-alpha tocopherol and is the one most commonly found in the shops. This is because the raw material is much cheaper than natural source, but it's also quite different. It is synthesised from by-products of the petrochemical industry. So, check labels to find out which it is before you buy. If it doesn't say natural or natural source on the label it probably isn't. Remember 'D' is good, 'DL' is less good! Healthspan's Natural Vitamin E is now in a Gelatin Free capsule, so there really is no healthier Vitamin E that you can buy. It's also available from Healthspan at a fraction of the price you would pay in the High Street!
