Why choose Tocotrienols
Vitamin E research has traditionally focused on alpha-tocopherol, while tocotrienols have received comparatively less attention despite being described as having very potent vitamin E activity. Tocotrienols have been reported in far fewer plant species than tocopherols, and research interest increased after findings related to healthy blood lipids. Doctor’s Best Tocotrienols emphasises tocotrienols while balancing them with the well-known tocopherol forms, in a self-emulsifying red palm oil-based formula. Available from Body Nutrition, a multi-brand online store active since 2001.
