Gamma-E Select‚Ñ¢ offers excellent vitamin E benefits from 400 IU (268.5 mg) of d-alpha tocopherol provided in a full spectrum matrix of absorbable tocopherol isomers featuring significant levels of gamma-tocopherol.
VITAMIN E is an important fat soluble vitamin and antioxidant. It occurs naturally in oil-containing plant foods such as wheat germ, nuts and sunflower seeds and is comprised of eight distinct isomers. Half of these are classified as tocopherols individually identified by the Greek letters alpha, beta, gamma and delta.
ALPHA-TOCOPHEROL is the primary tocopherol found in the blood and tissues of the human body, in addition to being the traditional form of vitamin E used to address vitamin E deficiency symptoms. Gamma tocopherol is the primary tocopherol form provided by dietary sources, and can be converted by the body into alpha-tocopherol as needed. Research suggests these two tocopherols may work better together than alone to provide many of the benefits associated with vitamin E, notably scavenging free radicals, supporting a healthy inflammation response, and helping to support healthy cardiovascular structure and function.
GAMMA-TOCOPHEROL has been shown in some studies to yield even higher antioxidant activity than alpha-tocopherol. It exhibits an outstanding ability to trap and neutralize both oxygen and nitrogen free radicals, most notably peroxynitrite, a reactive nitrogen species associated with endothelial dysfunction and age-related decline. High gamma mixed tocopherol complexes such as the one contained in Gamma-E Select‚Ñ¢ have been shown to help enhance blood vessel flow and vessel lining integrity in human clinical trials.
Gamma-E Select‚Ñ¢ is a superior vitamin E supplement supplying all four forms of vitamin E tocopherols with significant levels (67 mg) of d-gamma tocopherol for enhanced antioxidant activity.
