Bluebonnet Vitamin E 200 UI con Tocoferoles Mixtos, 50 Cápsulas Blandas

What is vitamin E and why is it important?

Vitamin E is an essential fat-soluble nutrient that acts as an antioxidant in the body. It helps protect cells from oxidative damage caused by free radicals. In addition, it contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system. This Bluebonnet supplement provides 200 IU of natural vitamin E (d-alpha-tocopherol) combined with mixed tocopherols, a highly bioavailable form.

Benefits of vitamin E

According to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), vitamin E contributes to:

• The protection of cells from oxidative damage.
• The normal functioning of the immune system.

These benefits support its use as part of a balanced diet. Vitamin E is also known for its role in maintaining skin health (protection against oxidative stress).

How much vitamin E to take per day?

The recommended daily dose for adults is 12 mg (approximately 18 IU). Each Bluebonnet capsule provides 200 IU (134 mg), a higher amount than the reference intake. However, amounts in supplements are usually higher and are considered safe within established limits (the tolerable upper limit for adults is 300 mg/day). Consult a healthcare professional before taking high doses.

Different forms of vitamin E: natural vs synthetic

This product contains natural vitamin E (d-alpha-tocopherol), which is bioavailable and better absorbed than the synthetic form (dl-alpha-tocopherol). In addition, it includes mixed tocopherols (beta, gamma, delta), which provide complementary antioxidant activity. Choosing a natural form ensures greater effectiveness.

Side effects and recommendations

Vitamin E is generally well tolerated. At very high doses (above 1000 mg/day) gastrointestinal discomfort may appear. Do not exceed the recommended dose. This product is free of gluten, dairy, egg, fish, shellfish, nuts, peanuts, wheat, corn, yeast, rice, sodium and added sugars. Store in a cool, dry place.

Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a balanced and varied diet. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. Keep out of reach of young children.
