Vitamin
E is actually a family of eight different but related
molecules that fall into two major groups: the tocopherols
and tocotrienols. Within each group, there are alpha,
beta, gamma and delta forms. Of all eight of these molecules,
alpha tocopherol is the most potent. Vitamin E is an antioxidant
that is important in the prevention of cancer and cardiovascular
disease. It improves circulation, is necessary for tissue
repair, and is useful in treating premenstrual syndrome
and fobrocystic disease of the breast. It promotes normal
blood clotting and healing, reduces scarring from some
wounds, reduces blood pressure, aids in preventing cataracts,
improves athletic performance, and relaxes leg cramps.
It also maintains healthy nerves and muscles while strengthening
capillary walls. In addition, it promotes healthy skin
and hair, and helps to prevent anemia and retrolental
fibroplasia, and eye disorder that can affect premature
infants. (Prsc Nutr Hlng).
