Vitamin E Acetate

All forms of vitamin E possess antioxidant activity.

However, the only forms maintained in human plasma and tissue are the 2R-alpha forms, including the natural RRR-alpha-tocopherol, commonly known as d-alpha-tocopherol.

Vitamin E is the principal antioxidant of the lipid domains of the body, such as cellular membranes.

  • It is a chain-breaking antioxidant that prevents the propagation of free radical activities.
  • It is a peroxyl radical scavenger and especially protects the polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) within membrane phospholipids and in plasma lipoproteins (LDL) against oxidation.
  • The hydroxyl group of the chromanol ring reacts with an organic peroxyl radical to form the corresponding organic hydroperoxide and the tocopheroxyl radical.
  • The tocopheroxyl radical is the pro-oxidant form of vitamin E and is thought to be regenerated to the antioxidant form by a network of other antioxidants, including vitamin C and glutathione.
  • Basically, Vitamin E is widely recognized for its antioxidant activities.
  • It has demonstrated immune-enhancing effects.
  • It may also help protect skin from ultraviolet irradiation
