Vitamin E

Vitamin E, Tocopherols, tocotrienols

Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin essential for the functioning of the body due to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory action, which help the immune system, skin and hair and can prevent diseases such as atherosclerosis and Alzheimer's.

Nutraceutic

  • Origin Plant Based, Animal Product, Synthetic
  • Source Fish, Wheat Germs, Peanuts, Almonds, Hazelnut, Sunflower Seeds, Avocado, Fruits
  • Type Vitamin

Longevity & Prevention

To live longer is necessary to live well, meaning that overall well-being, healthy organs, a healthy brain and good habits are taken into consideration when it comes to longevity. All of those circumstances require a healthy lifestyle, which works directly in the prevention of illnesses or conditions that might negatively influence your health. There are a lot nutraceutics and supplements that can help the body to stay safe and sound, just as it should be.

  • Immune Response

    As we age, our immune systems gradually deteriorate too. Thus, it is crucial that we start taking care of it as soon as possible. This is possible by buildiung a very strong immune system so it can have better immune responses and not get too fragile as the time goes by.

Immunity

The immune system is made up of cells, tissues and organs that act in the organism's defense against the harmful effects of external microorganisms. The supplements indicated for immunity act as strengthening agents of this system, increasing the antibodies production and, consequently, its defense activity.

  • Immune Response

    The immune response is measured by how fast and how effective the immune system can neutralize any kind of sickness, being viruses, bacteria or other pathogens.
  • Age Range Children (0-12), Teenagers (13-19), Adults (20-59), Seniors (>60)
  • Toxicity May be toxic in high doses
  • Side effects Headaches, Nausea, Sleepness, Abdominal Pain, Fatigue
  • Warnings Diabetes, Hepatic Diseases, Cardiovascular Diseases

Why be Careful

Vitamin E supplementation may increase the risk of bleeding and for individuals with bleeding disorders, consumption of this vitamin is not recommended. For diabetic individuals the consumption of vitamin E is not recommended in high doses, as it can increase the risk of heart attack. In the long run, consumption of vitamin E can worsen insulin resistance when administered with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
