http://www.liquidhealthinc.com/node/161 Vitamin E in your liquid antioxidant
supplement Vitamin E is next in our series of informational articles about
ingredients you may find in our natural liquid supplements [1]. According to
the Office of Dietary Supplements “Vitamin E is the collective name for a
group of fat-soluble compounds with distinctive antioxidant activities.”
The different forms of Vitamin E are alpha-, beta-, gamma-, and
delta-tocopherol and alpha-, beta-, gamma-, and delta-tocotrienol. Of these
different forms, only alpha-tocopherol has the ability to meet human needs
for Vitamin E. Vitamin E is so popular because of its antioxidant properties.
The Office of Dietary Supplements says “antioxidants protect cells from the
damaging effects of free radicals, which are molecules that contain an
unshared electron. Free radicals damage cells and might contribute to the
development of cardiovascular disease and cancer.” Vitamin E also plays a
role in immune function, cell signaling, gene expression and other metabolic
processes. If you’re in the market for a liquid antioxidant supplement [2],
be sure to find one that includes Vitamin E. This important antioxidant
vitamin “might help prevent or delay the chronic diseases associated with
free radicals,” according to the Office of Dietary Supplements. Vitamin E
can also be found in various food sources, such as leafy green vegetables,
nuts and seeds. Like Vitamin D, many cereals are also fortified with Vitamin
E. The Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDAs) for Vitamin E, according to the
Food and Nutrition Board is: 6 mg/day for those aged 1-3 years old 7 mg/day
for those aged 4-8 years old 11 mg/day for those aged 9-13 years old 15
mg/day for those aged 14 years and older According to the Office of Dietary
Supplement, “frank vitamin E defiency is rare” and “research has not
found any adverse effects from consuming vitamin E in food. However, high
doses of alpha-tocopherol supplements can cause hemorrhage and interrupt
blood coagulation in animals, and in vitro data suggest that high doses
inhibit platelet aggregation.” Based on this information, it’s important
to consult your physician before adding Vitamin E to your supplement routine.
