Emerging research demonstrates that gamma-Tocopherol the most abundant form of Vitamin E in the diet has very important and unique functions. Central to these functions is its capacity to detoxify reactive nitrogen species an especially destructive form of free radical. In addition gamma-Tocopherol acts to trap and remove free radicals from the body in a way that alpha-Tocopherol cannot. NOW Advanced Gamma E Complex provides the necessary full range of antioxidant protection because it contains a more natural balance of Tocopherols plus a full complement of Tocotrienols. NOW Advanced formula thereby provides superior support for cardiovascular health as well as protection for the health of the prostate and the colon.* From the FDA's website: Some scientific evidence suggests that consumption of antioxidant vitamins may reduce the risk of certain forms of cancer. However the FDA has determined that this evidence is limited and not conclusive.

Dietary supplement. Complete E Complex with tocotrienols. Recent research has demonstrated that gamma-tocopherol the main dietary source of vitamin E has a very important role in supporting health. Gamma-tocopherol is a more effective antioxidant than alpha-tocopherol and may be an important factor for a healthy cardiovascular system. It also inhibits the DOX-2 enzyme according to in vitro tests. Research indicates that a ratio of gamma to alpha-tocopherol greater than 1:1 increases levels of both tocopherols in the body and that alpha-tocopherol alone may not be adequate to combat oxidative stress. Source Naturals Gamma E 400 offers a 3:1 gamma to alpha-tocopherol ratio (200 IU equals 133 mg) and also contains tocotrienols from palm fruit which provides high concentrations of all four tocotrienols: alpha beta gamma and delta. Sesame oil rich in gamma-tocopherol is used as the base. (These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.
