Nova Vitae Vitamin E 200IUVitamin E occurs naturally in foods such as sunflower oil, grain products, nuts and seeds, and fruits and vegetables.
Vitamin E is also added to other foods such as halvarine and margarine and is, of course, available as a dietary supplement.
"Vitamin E" is the collective name for a group of fat-soluble compounds with distinct antioxidant activities.
Naturally occurring vitamin E comes in eight chemical forms (alpha-, beta-, gamma-, and delta-tocopherol and alpha-, beta-, gamma-, and delta-tocotrienol) with varying levels of biological activity. Alpha-tocopherol is the only form recognized by the body to be functionally beneficial.
Serum concentrations of vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol) depend on the liver, which processes the nutrient after the various forms have been absorbed by the small intestine. The liver preferentially recovers only alpha-tocopherol via the hepatic alpha-tocopherol transfer protein.
