Tocotrienols

Cardiovascular and antioxidant protection

*This formula provides a natural blend of 30% tocotrienols and  mixed tocopherols extracted from rice bran oil. Tocotrienols  are isoprenoid compounds related to the vitamin E family. While  the structure of tocotrienols differs only slightly from vitamin  E, it gives tocotrienols distinct functions of their own. Studies  have reported that tocotrienols support lipid metabolism by maintaining  healthy enzyme activity. These compounds may also support breast  cell health and scavenge free radicals. Gamma tocotrienol is  believed to be one of the most prized constituents. In addition,  this formula contains alpha and gamma tocopherols, the active  forms of vitamin E. A powerful antioxidant, vitamin E helps to  preserve the cell membranes of cardiac and skeletal muscles.  Vitamin E also plays a critical role in nucleic acid and protein  metabolism, mitochondrial function, and hormone support.
