Description

Vitamin E is one of the 4 fat-soluble vitamins. Vitamin E acts as an antioxidant and is very important for controlling oxidation and reactive oxygen species (free radicals), especially during weight loss. Not just due to a calorie deficit, this is because vitamin E is a primary antioxidant in our fat cells, and when we start losing fat cells or they begin to shrink, free radicals are released. Protecting from free radicals with vitamin E influences multiple avenues of health.

• Particularly in higher doses, vitamin E boosts T-cell mediated immunity, which means the body is better able to fight infection.*
• May reduce muscle damage in athletes*
• Improves healthy liver function*
• Supports natural antioxidant function*

Optitune’s Vitamin E™ is dosed at 400 IU, which is the greatest efficacious dose known to be well-tolerated. At this dose, oxidative stress is optimally controlled, and vitamin E-dependent functions are well maintained.

FAQs

Q: What is the best way to take Vitamin E™?

A: As a dietary supplement, take 1 serving (1 softgel) once daily with food.

Q: Can I take Vitamin E™ with any other Optitune products?

A: Yes! For complete antioxidative effects, stack Vitamin E™ with ALA and L-Carnitine.

Q: Is it possible to take too much Vitamin E?

A: Because vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin, instead of a water-soluble vitamin (e.g., vitamin B12), it tends to stick around in the body a little longer. Because of this, it can accumulate over time. The tolerable upper limit for vitamin E intake is 1,500 IU daily, about 4x the amount in a single serving of Vitamin E™.
