Information:
Natural E 500 IU provides nutritional support for the heart, cardiovascular system and immune system. As a potent antioxidant, it helps reduce free radical damage to body cells.
Antioxidant Activity: Antioxidants help protect our cell membranes from the potentially harmful effects of free radicals and oxidative stress, which can occur as a consequence of normal metabolic function or because of exposure to environmental and lifestyle pollutants (such as cigarette smoke, ozone, car exhaust fumes, some types of fatty foods, and even the physical effects of exercise and stress). As a major antioxidant, vitamin E scavenges free radicals, neutralising their volatile activity and helps to protect cell membranes from the damage they can cause.
Immune Health: In addition to its actions in the cardiovascular system, vitamin E may also help maintain immune defences and in this regard, may be especially beneficial for older people.
An Important Note About Vitamin E Supplements: If you decide to take a vitamin E supplement to safeguard your intake of this vital nutrient, it’s important that you choose a supplement that contains naturally-sourced vitamin E, which will be labelled as d-alpha-Tocopherol. At Australian NaturalCare, d-alpha-Tocopherol is the only form of vitamin E that we use in our supplements because it is twice as biologically active as the synthetic form, which will be labelled dl-alpha-Tocopherol.
