New Roots Herbal - Vitamin E8, 120 soft gels

Vitamin E is one of the great fat-soluble antioxidants. It is able to go where ordinary water-soluble antioxidants cannot. Vitamin E helps stop oxygen in red blood cells from turning into harmful peroxides. As well, it protects other vitamins from oxidation in the digestive tract.

Most vitamin E products contain only d-alpha tocopherol and often the synthetic form. There is much more to vitamin E than d-alpha tocopherol. There are eight compounds that make up the vitamin E family. Our food contains all eight compounds and this is the form our bodies have been processing since the beginning of our time.

New Roots Herbal’s Vitamin E8 contains all eight members of the vitamin E family —four tocopherols and four tocotrienols— extracted from vegetable oils that are present in their natural, fully active unesterified form. The eight members of the vitamin E family have some functions that are similar and other functions that are completely different. 

New Roots Herbal’s Vitamin E8 is sourced from GMO-free sources. This natural, comprehensive vitamin E supplement provides all the benefits of vitamin E you would obtain from food and includes the benefits of tocotrienols, phytosterols and squalenes. Phytosterols have cholesterol-lowering properties and may reduce the risk of heart disease. They are very important in maintaining good skin health and a youthful appearance. Squalenes interact with glycolipids present in the skin. They help maintain the skin’s barrier properties and flexibility and help maintain suppleness.
