Vitamin E
- Vitamin E is essential to the normal functioning of the human body. It plays a central role in your immune system and functions as an antioxidant, neutralizing free radicals that damage cells at the genetic level.
- Vitamin E is fat-soluble, meaning that it is dissolved in fat and able to be stored in the liver and fatty tissues of the body.
Uses
- Vitamin E acts as an antioxidant (i.e., an inhibitor of oxidation processes) in body tissues. It protects unsaturated fats in the body from oxidation by peroxides and other free radicals. It also acts as an protection of polyunsaturated fatty acids, cell membranes.
- The vitamin is used commercially as an antioxidant to retard the rancidification of fats, especially vegetable oils.
- Vitamin E aids in the transmission of electrical signals between nerve cells (neurons) of the brain and body.
- Vitamin E is integral to eye health, aiding in the self-repair of the retina, cornea, and uvea (the pigmented portion of the eye).
- Vitamin E can aid in scar healing by hydrating the skin, inhibiting collagen production, and reducing inflammation that can lead to tissue damage.
