Vitamin
E (Tocopherol) is a fat-soluble vitamin that acts as an antioxidant.
Vitamin E is an antioxidant that protects body tissue from damage caused
by unstable substances called free radicals. Free radicals can harm
cells, tissues, and organs, and they are believed to be one of the causes
of the degenerative processes seen in aging. It prevents premature
reaction of oxygen in the body, prevents breakdown of many substances
in the body. Essential to the use of oxygen by muscles, helps
improve circulation and promotes normal clotting and healing.
Vitamin
E is also important in the formation and prolong life of red blood cells
and it helps the body to use
vitamin K.

The benefit of vitamin E supplementation
in cancer, heart disease, dementia, liver disease, and stroke are still not
known. It is likely that a protective effect will be found for coronary artery
disease.
Recommended daily allowances
(RDAs) are defined as the levels of intake of essential nutrients that, on
the basis of scientific knowledge, the Food and Nutrition Board judges to
be adequate to meet the known nutrient needs of practically all healthy persons.
The best way to get the daily
requirement of essential vitamins is to eat a balanced diet that contains
a variety of foods from the food guide pyramid. Specific recommendations
for each vitamin depend on age, gender, and other factors (such as pregnancy).
The FDA's
reference daily intakes
(RDI) for Vitamin E is 30 International Units (IU).
