A New and Better Form of Vitamin E
In the areas of alternative health and alternative medicine, vitamin E has played a major role. There are however, two major forms of the vitamin, tocopherol and tocotrienol. Tocopherol's popularity has been well-earned, despite a recent study showing some negative aspects.
We believe this was due to the use in the study of an excessive dosage. As you know, one can take too much of virtually anything, including water--one can drown in it.
Recently a new form of the alternative medicine vitamin has been studied and reported on in the medical media, that of tocotrienol. One problem with it is its scarcity in the foods we eat. It is found principally in brown rice and palm kernel oil and rarely elsewhere. It now can
be found sold separately or in a pill combination with tocopherol.
"Research shows that tocotrientol can inhibit the...oxidative damage to [fats] and proteins." Also, that "[in its processing by the body] lowers cholesterol synthesis." In addition, this alternative medicine "can reverse a harmful concomitant condition in heart attacks "which
causes cardiac dysfunction..." Tocotrienol "offers protection against Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and Huntington's disease."
This alternative medicine in addition "exerts an anticancer property...induction of a [body-induced cell death,] inhibition of angiogenesis* [and has] anti-inflammatory...and anti-atherogenic" [heart disease] effects" other than that noted above.
