Vitasorb Vitamin E
Vitamin E is an antioxidant nutrient needed for
protecting cell membranes against damage from free radicals.
Vitasorb® E is in a highly absorbable liquid form and can be taken
sublingually (under the tongue) or added to water, fruit juice or
milk.
Vitasorb®E is a micellised preparation incorporating the unique Vitasorb®
process for maximising absorption efficiency. This procedure presents vitamin
E, which is normally fat-soluble, in a water-soluble form. This increases
the bioavailability of fat-soluble nutrients.
Micellised vitamins are absorbed far more efficiently
than other forms of nutrients, and are therefore required in much lower
doses.
Vitasorb vitamins can be taken sublingually
(under the tongue) or added to water, fruit juice or milk. The Vitasorb
range is free from additives and is suitable for allergic individuals.
Vitamin
E is an antioxidant that helps neutralise free radicals.
Vitamin
E is required for a healthy heart and circulation and may help to
increase the beneficial High Density Lipoproteins (HDL).
Vitamin E supports the immune system.
Vitamin E supports connective tissue and is
required for new skin growth.
Vitamin E is required for the function of the
sex organs.
Vitamin E maintains healthy blood vessels and
reduces oxygen requirements in muscle tissue.
Vitasorb E is presented as micellised water
soluble vitamin E to enhance absorption.
Vitasorb E is ideal
for
those who have difficulty swallowing capsules and tablets.
Can be taken
sublingually (under the tongue) for those with gastrointestinal problems.
Ideal for
individuals with malabsorption problems.
Detergent
and surfactant free.

Antioxidants
If you’ve noticed how an apple turns brown when it’s cut or how iron rusts when
exposed to the elements, you’ve seen the effects of oxidation. Oxidation causes
similar damage to the cells of the body. But unless you have discovered how to live
without breathing, you cannot escape the consequences of oxidation. It takes place
whenever you breathe, digest food, exercise, or even sleep – and produces potentially
harmful agents called free radicals.
Free radicals
are unstable molecules that trigger chain reactions that eat away at the cells of
the body and damage the genetic material they contain. Countless free-radical chain
reactions take place in the body each day. In addition, emotional stress, ultraviolet
light, air pollution, and cigarette smoke also generate free radicals that can put
your health at risk.
Fortunately,
nature provides antioxidants – factors which have been shown to be helpful in minimizing
the effects of free radicals. The most important antioxidants include:
Certain
vitamins and carotenoids
Glutathione,
L-cysteine, alpha lipoic acid
Certain
minerals such as Zinc and Selenium
Components
found in plants, such as ginkgo biloba, bilberry, resveratrol and green tea
While fruits
and vegetables provide a source of natural antioxidants in the diet, in this modern
age additional supplementation is desirable to help achieve optimal intake.
Recent
research suggests that combinations of antioxidants work better than isolated antioxidants,
and that alpha lipoic acid in particular helps to recycle the antioxidants.
Vitamins
Vitamins are vital for human life because they play integral roles in hundreds of
life-sustaining biochemical reactions. Vitamins are the catalysts for all reactions
using proteins, fats and carbohydrates for energy, growth and cell maintenance.
Certain nutrients are required in excess of the typical amounts supplied in the
diet depending on specific nutritional needs. Consuming dietary vitamin and mineral
supplements may help play an important role in maintaining good health. For the
most part, vitamins cannot be produced in the body and must be supplied through
the diet or vitamin and mineral supplements.
Vitamin E (alpha tocopherol) was first isolated
from plant oils. Tocopherols are the primary fat-soluble antioxidants that help
minimize the effects of free-radicals.
Of the four compounds - designated as alpha, beta, delta and gamma tocopherols -
alpha tocopherol has the greatest nutritional and biological value. Vitamin E (alpha
tocopherol) may help:
Prevent polyunsaturated fatty acids from breaking
down and combining with substances that may harm the body. As a result, fats
and oils containing vitamin E are less likely to turn rancid than those without
vitamin E.
Prevent oxygen from converting to toxic peroxide
free radicals.
To maintain muscle and nerve function.
Bring nourishment to cells.
Strengthen capillary walls.
Protect red blood cells from being destroyed by
poisons, such as hydrogen peroxide, in the blood.
Promote healthy immune function.
Vitamin
E
Intakes above 100i.u. in individuals with high blood pressure should initially be
used with caution.
Individuals taking anticoagulant drugs such as Warfarin, Heparin and Coumarin should
avoid vitamin E above 100mg daily unless supervised by a medical practitioner.
Individuals with a recent history of heart disease should avoid excessive intakes
of vitamin E unless supervised by a medical practitioner.
Women with active breast, ovarian or hormonally dependent tumours should avoid high
intakes of vitamin E presented in a base of wheatgerm, soy, corn oil or other polyunsaturated
oils.
