    Default Benefits of vitamin E

    Vitamin E is used to describe the various tocopherols and tocotrienols which make up this fat soluble vitamin which happens to be an excellent antioxidant. This type of antioxidant is able to prevent the creation of reactive oxygen species in the fat. The most important tocopherol in vitamin E is the a tocopherol or commonly known as the alpha tocopherol. This is also the most highly studied tocopherol with the most bioavailability.

    Default Benefits of vitamin E

    there are many benefits of vitamin e:-

    - Vitamin e for Skin

    In terms of skin health and skin care, vitamin e benefits are numerous. In fact, skin care products that contain vitamin e have become an essential part of healthy skin care.

    Vitamin e added to lotions, creams, and other skin care products, as well as taken orally, plays a role in the anti-aging of skin. It helps skin look younger by reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Also, free radicals are believed to play an important role in skin aging and therefore the antioxidant activity is quite valuable for this skin problem.
    Sun Protection and Sun Burn Treatment

    Vitamin e lotions provide some benefit in preventing and treating sunburns. These lotions protect the epidermis layer of the skin from early stages of ultra violet light damage. Vitamin e preparations also increase the effectiveness of sunscreens. Such lotions do not work immediately. They must be applied about 20 minutes before sun exposure in order to allow the vitamin e to be absorbed deep into the epidermis layer.

    Treatment of Skin Diseases

    Vitamin e can aid in the treatment of various skin diseases or skin conditions. Topical applications such as those used to treat psoriasis is one of the benefits of vitamin e. Orally ingested vitamin e can help treat erythema (a skin inflammation that results in reddish, painful, and tender lumps).

    Treatment of Scars
    One of the most important benefits of vitamin e is the prevention of skin cancer. This occurs because of its sun protection quality and of course its powerful antioxidant properties, which help reduce or prevent sun damage.

    Overall for skin care, more benefit is obtained from topical application of vitamin e through creams or lotions rather than taking vitamin e orally. Skin is able to absorb natural vitamin e effectively. However, taking vitamin e orally is important for the good health of other areas of the body.

    The recommended skin lotions and creams by many experts are those that contain the alcohol form of vitamin e (alpha-tocopherol) instead of the acetate form (alpha-tocopherol acetate). The acetate form does not penetrate the skin’s surface well and provides less of the benefits of vitamin e such as antioxidant activity for the skin.

    Benefits of vitamin e also include helping the body increase and regulate the levels of vitamin a in the body and as a general immune system booster, especially in older adults. Topical vitamin e might also promote good blood circulation and prevent the formation of blood clots, especially in people with diabetes.

    are you Feeling tired?
    No energy?
    Had your insoluble fibre?
    Had your antioxidants or your omega 3?

    if answer is yes then you need a supplement like Optimal Essentials BOOST that give you vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and amino acids etc.

    For some reason, I got mixed opinions of Vitamin E. My doctor tells me that it is also not good if I take too much of Vitamin E daily. What are your thoughts for this issue?

    Hello Friends......

    Vitamin E acts as a powerful antioxidant by neutralizing free radicals in the body that cause tissue and cellular damage. Vitamin E also contributes to a healthy circulatory system and aids in proper blood clotting and improves wound healing. Some studies have shown that vitamin E decreases symptoms of premenstrual syndrome and certain types of breast disease.

    Thanks

    hey guys, just wanted to make a splash entrance since there is no "intro" thread.

    Vitamin E is definitely a powerful antioxidant, mostly because it's a fat soluble antioxidant. Specifically Vitamin E protects your cell's outer protective barrier against the hydroxyl radical.

    My site is all about antioxidants and I have a section specifically on Vitamin E. Feel free to check it out.

    It's interesting when I did the research that alpha-tocopherol is 100% biologically active yet in the American diet we mostly get gamma-tocopherol (the european diet consists mostly of alpha-tocopherol). Most of the food sources for Vitamin E come from fatty sources (ie. oils, nuts).

    There has been recent research by the Linus Pauling institute regarding gamma-tocopherol and how it helps to fight off the nitric oxide free radical (the stuff that makes acid rain).

Vitamin E has been shown to help even out heart arrhythmia, decrease sun damage to skin, and help keep skin youthful for a longer period of time. Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin.

    A major benefit of vitamin E is the prevention of skin cancer. This occurs because of its quality sunscreen and of course its powerful antioxidant properties that help reduce or prevent sun damage.

The benefits of vitamin e for healthy skin care also include its ability to regulate vitamin a in the body, which itself is important for healthy skin.

    Vitamin supplements are great as supplements to your diet, but in some cases overdoses can occur. The human body can withstand only so much of one type of vitamin. There can be deadly results from consuming extreme amounts of vitamins. There are many vitamins and minerals the body needs to be healthy. The vitamins that the body can not store such as vitamin C, are the vitamins that the human body needs and could use extra amounts. The vitamins the body does store like vitamins E, A and D can be taken to the extreme of causing a vitamin overdose.

    Vitamin E builds capillaries in the body and improved blood flow on the scalp encourages hair growth. It supports a healthy scalp by helping to increase the oxygen supplied through the blood.

    Aside from stimulating hair regrowth, E vitamins also prevent hair graying. Foods rich in vitamin-E include broccoli, spinach, dried beans, soybeans, eggs, wheat germ, green leafy vegetables and vegetable oils.

    Skin Protection- Vitamin E has been shown to protect our skin from ultraviolet radiation, thus guarding us from both skin cancer and premature aging.
    Metabolism Booster- Vitamin E interrupts the development of nitrosamines (carcinogens formed in the stomach), which improves the body's metabolic function.

    -vitamin e products help reduce the appearance of stretch marks
    -vitamin e can help prevent the appearance of age spots
    -it helps maintain the skin’s oil balance during the cleansing process

    Vitamin E has been credited with curing or preventing:
    -Parkinson's disease
    -Infertility in both men & women
    -Alzheimer's disease
    -Hair Loss
    -Diabetes

    Vitamin E has many biological functions. The antioxidant function is considered to be the most important function of vitamin E and is the one it is best known for. However, there are other functions that have also been recognized to be of importance. α-Tocopherol has a regulatory effect on enzymatic activities..I like the theme here. To educate ourselves better is great, right?

    Vitamin E acts as an antioxidant, preventing the damage done by oxidation of nutrients and other chemicals in the body. Specifically, it seems to prevent damage to the eyes from age related macular degeneration, reduces the risk of heart disease and helps prevent certain cancers. Studies have shown, for instance, that patients with atherosclerosis who take vitamin E supplements show significantly less plaque build-up in their cells than those in a control group who were taking a placebo.



    Antioxidants like Vitamin E are a major part of the body’s immune system. They provide protection against diseases and conditions that are associated with aging by preventing free radicals from damaging cells of the skin, eyes, liver, heart and other bodily organs.
