Vitamin E for Health


       Vitamin E




Vitamin E is a powerful, fat-soluble antioxidant that is vital to good health.

Vitamin E helps support cell membranes and repair damage by free radicals, is necessary for structural and functional maintenance of skeletal, cardiac, and smooth muscle, assists in the formation of new red blood cells, and helps to maintain the body's supply of vitamins A and K, iron, and selenium

Why not save yourself some money and get your vitamin E by eating healthy foods.  You can add vitamin E to your diet with foods such as nuts, spinach, sunflower seeds, wheat germ, and whole grains.

People taking blood thinners or aspirin should consult with their doctor about taking a vitamin E supplement to avoid potential drug interactions. If you do supplement with vitamin E, take it with a meal that contains some fat to aid in its absorption.
