Vitamin E (Tocopherol) is a powerful antioxidant which protects cell membranes and other fat-soluble parts of the body. Studies suggest that supplementing with Vitamin E helps to prevent heart disease. Vitamin E appears to be the most effective supplement for slowing the progression of Alzheimer’s Disease. In a two-year double-blind study, those patients given a 2000 IU dose of Vitamin E daily were able to perform regular daily tasks for a longer time. Antioxidants as a class, are an excellent method of dealing with buildup of LDL ("bad cholesterol") in the system. Vitamin E has been shown to prevent heart disease, and to prevent LDL from causing further damage. Antioxidants, such as Vitamin E, are an important part of the body’s defense against muscle damage from exercise. Strenuous exercise increases the body’s production of free radicals, which, in turn, can cause muscle damage which manifests as swollen or painful muscles. While exercise increases the body’s natural defense against free radicals, athletes who are doing intense training may benefit from the addition of Vitamin E to their diets. Intake of U.N. Vitamin E has been proven to increase endurance based on an improved blood flow and capillarisation due to which oxygen balance and use within the body are being optimized.
