Summary: Vitamin E Can be Toxic in High Dosages
Comment: Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin, meaning it is an oil-based vitamin. All the oil based vitamins are stored in the liver or in body fat cells. When too much of a fat soluble vitamin is ingested, the excess is stored in fat. If too much is ingested over a period of time, the excess vitamin can become toxic. Thus, taking too much of a fat-soluble vitamin can be dangerous to your health.
This formualtion of Vitamin E, at 400 IU's is perhaps too great a dose to take in my opinion. I much prefer the 200 IU dose (or less). The recommended daily allowance (in adults) for Vitamin E set by the FDA is only 15 mg a day.
Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin that exists in eight different forms. Each form has its own biological activity, which is the measure of potency or functional use in the body [1]. Alpha-tocopherol (รก-tocopherol) is the name of the most active form of vitamin E in humans.
Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant and it attaches itself to free radicals (by-products of metabolism that can harm the body), and neutralize them. Vitamin E can have beneficial effects on the skin, the heart, and the immune system. Vegetable oils, nuts, green leafy vegetables, and fortified cereals are common food sources of vitamin E in the United States.
Long-term supplementation (over a year) with Vitamin E has not been adequately studied, thus it is best to take a 200 IU dose or LESS. The idea that "taking more of a beneficial vitamin is better" has not been proven to be true. Avoid the higher doses of Vitamin E.
