Recommendations  

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).      vgo to top
