N.B: Oxidizing agents in processed foods, rancid Fats and Oils, Inorganic Iron supplements, the Pill and Mineral Oil Laxatives, X - Rays and excessive Sugar intake damage Vitamin E in the Body.

 

    From within the Intestines it is absorbed into the Lymph and transported into the Bloodstream to the Liver where high concentrations are stored. It is also stored in the Adrenal Glands, Blood, Fatty Tissues, Heart Muscles, Pituitary Glands,Testes and the Uterus. As an OIntment it can be absorbed through the Skin and Mucous Membranes. Assists with the formation and function of Red Blood Cells, Muscles and other Tissues keeping Fats from becoming rancid when exposed to air. Required for Fertility and normal production, aids in utilization of Vitamin A, assists to prevent Heart and Blood Conditions. Protects against Air Pollutants and other Free Radicals and assists to prevent Lung Disease by maintaining the health of Cell Membranes and the Circulatory and Reproductive Organs.

Or 1-2 Capsules of Vitamin E can be rubbed directly into the roots of the Hair and comb it through to the ends and leave in to suite.

 

N.B: Vitamin E in large doses may raise Blood Pressure if you are not accustomed to it, although excessive amounts are excreted in the Urine and should disperse within 3 days.  Inorganic Iron and Vitamin E administered together diminishes the absorption of both. Best to take Vitamin E before meals or at bedtime as one dose, and Iron 8 - 12 hours later as one dose after this, to absorb properly.  Chlorine in drinking water, Ferric Acid Chloride, Rancid Oil or Fat and Inorganic Iron Compounds  destroy Vitamin E in the Body while MIneral Oil used as a laxative dissolves it but depletes it. Vegetable Oils dissolve Alpha Tocopherol and release it in the Body. Poor absorption can impair Red Blood Cells.

 

N.B:Large amounts of Polyunsaturated Fats or OIls increase Oxidation of Vitamin E.
