FAQ
What does Vitamin E do?
Vitamin E is an antioxidant that protects cell membranes and other fat- soluble parts from damage, such as LDL cholesterol. Only when LDL is damaged does cholesterol appear to lead to heart disease, which is why vitamin E is an important antioxidant. Several studies have reported that 400 to 800 IU of natural vitamin E per day reduces the risk of heart attacks. Vitamin E also plays some role in the body’s ability to process glucose. Some, but not all, trials suggest that vitamin E supplements may eventually prove to be helpful in the prevention and treatment of diabetes.
In the last ten years, the functions of vitamin E in the cell have been further clarified. In addition to its antioxidant functions, vitamin E is now known to have a positive effect on inflammation, blood cell regulation, connective tissue growth and genetic control of cell division.
Some studies have pointed to the benefits of vitamin E for dialysis patients, many of whom must be given injections of iron and consequently experience "oxidative stress" because iron is a pro-oxidant, meaning that it interacts with oxygen molecules in ways that may damage tissues. These adverse effects of iron therapy may be counteracted by vitamin E supplements.
Where is Vitamin E found?
Wheat germ oil, nuts and seeds, whole grains, egg yolks, and leafy green vegetables all contain vitamin E. Although vegetable oils should contain significant amounts of vitamin E, many vegetable oils sold in supermarkets have had the vitamin E removed in processing. A diet high in unsaturated fats, those found in common vegetable oils increases vitamin E requirements. Also, vitamin E and selenium work together to protect fat-soluble parts of the body.
Who is likely to be deficient?
Although severe vitamin E deficiencies are rare, even low vitamin E status has been associated with an increased risk of rheumatoid arthritis and major depression. Women with preclampsia have been found to have lower blood levels of vitamin E than women without the condition. Very old people with type 2 diabetes have shown a significant age-related decline in blood levels of vitamin E, irrespective of their dietary intake. The high amounts found in supplements and needed for health maintenance, often 100 to 800 IU per day, are not obtainable even from the most healthy diet.
How much is usually taken?
recommended dietary allowance for vitamin E is low, just 15 mg or approximately 22 International Units (IU) per day. The most commonly recommended amount of supplemental vitamin E for adults is 400 to 800 IU per day. However, some leading researchers suggest taking only 100 to 200 IU per day, since trials that have explored the long-term effects of different supplemental levels suggest no further benefit beyond that amount. In addition, research reporting positive effects with does of 400 to 800 IU per day has not been researched thoroughly.
Are there any side effects or interactions?
E toxicity is very rare and supplements are widely considered to be safe. The National Academy of Sciences has established the daily tolerable upper intake level for adults to be 1,000 mg of vitamin E, which is equivalent to 1,500 IU of natural vitamin E or 1,100 IU of synthetic vitamin E. Our product recommends an average dose of 200 IU per day.
