Life Extension Gamma E - Tocoferoles Mixtos y Tocotrienoles, 60 cápsulas blandas

Amplified antioxidant protection

Life Extension Gamma E offers a complete vitamin E formula that combines mixed tocopherols and tocotrienols. This unique blend provides broader antioxidant protection than conventional alpha-tocopherol-only supplements. Vitamin E contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative damage, a benefit supported by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA).

What is Vitamin E?

Vitamin E is an essential fat-soluble nutrient that acts as an antioxidant in the body. It is naturally found in foods such as nuts, seeds, and vegetable oils. There are eight different compounds: four tocopherols (alpha, beta, gamma, delta) and four tocotrienols (alpha, beta, gamma, delta). Life Extension Gamma E includes all of these for comprehensive support.

Benefits of Vitamin E

• Cellular protection: Vitamin E contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative damage, helping to maintain overall health.
• Immune function: Contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system, essential for the body's defenses.
• Cardiovascular health: Helps maintain healthy blood vessels and normal arterial function, as well as supporting healthy platelet activity.
• Vision and nerve function: Vitamin E contributes to the maintenance of normal vision and the functioning of the nervous system.

These claims are authorized by the EFSA.

How much Vitamin E should I take daily?

The recommended daily allowance for adults in the EU is 12 mg of alpha-tocopherol equivalents. Each Life Extension Gamma E softgel provides a significant amount, but it is important not to exceed the dosage indicated on the packaging. Consult a healthcare professional before starting any supplementation.

Different forms of Vitamin E: natural vs. synthetic

Natural vitamin E (d-alpha-tocopherol) has superior bioavailability to synthetic vitamin E (dl-alpha-tocopherol). This product uses natural tocopherols derived from vegetable oils, ensuring better absorption. Tocotrienols, although less common, offer complementary antioxidant properties.

Side effects and recommendations

Vitamin E is generally well tolerated. In very high doses, it can interact with anticoagulant medications. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. Keep out of reach of young children. Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a balanced and varied diet.
