Description
Vitamin E, also known as tocopherol, is a fat-soluble vitamin. One of the roles fat plays in the diet is to transport fat-soluble vitamins. So Vitamin E is carried through the body attached to fat. The body stores vitamin E in fat deposits and in the liver.
The best sources of vitamin E are vegetable oils, including sunflower, safflower, canola, corn, olive, and wheat germ oil; and products made from these oils, such as margarine, nuts, seeds, wheat germ, mustard greens, broccoli, and unprocessed cereal grains. Leafy-green vegetables also contain Vitamin E, but in smaller amounts. Refined grains, such as white flour, have had the germ removed. Since the germ of the seed is where vitamin E is located, foods made from refined flours are not good sources. Whole-wheat flour contains much of the original germ and is a much better source of vitamin E.
Vitamin E may function as an antioxidant. This means it may help protect the body cells from oxidation. Oxidation is a chemical reaction in the body that can lead to cell damage. It is also a natural part of aging. Many scientists believe that this cell damage can lead to chronic health problems such as heart disease. Vitamin E supplementation, in addition to diet and lifestyle factors, can contribute to reducing the risk of heart disease and improving overall health.
