Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin that exists in eight different forms: alpha-, beta-, delta-, and gamma-tocopherol, and the corresponding tocotrienols. LifeLink’s Vitamin E is a mixture of the four tocopherols. Your body is unable to make vitamin E, so you must get an adequate amount in food or from supplements.
The tocopherols are antioxidants which play a role in neutralizing free radical molecules. If free radicals remained unneutralized they would rapidly damage all parts of the body and drastically shorten our lives. The tocopherols may also participate in the synthesis and maintenance of red blood cells.
