Vitamin E: What Kind is Best? Tocopherols vs Tocotrienols

Vitamin E, a fat soluble nutrient, has eight isoforms: alpha, beta, gamma, and delta tocopherols and tocotrienols. Commonly "Vitamin E" is used synonymously with alpha tocopherols, but that excludes the 7 additional isoforms of E! This has caused confusion in translating research when "vitamin E" is used to translate findings specific to alpha tocopherols. Foods are generally either high in the 4 tocotrienols or the 4 tocopherols. Alpha tocopherols can inhibit the absorption of tocotrienols so be mindful to separate out doses of each by at least 6 hours. General benefits of the vitamin E family: 1. Lubricant to all mucus membranes 2. Anti-scarring effect 3. Anti-coagulant/blood thinning effect - Caution if you are already taking anticoagulants 4. Strong antioxidants - live within and protect all cell membranes 5.
