Vitamin E
Fights cellular ageing.
Protects the body's tissues from peroxidation and free radicals.
Vitamin E is soluble in fats and oils.
The main function of Vitamin E is to protect cell membranes by limiting the damaging reactions of membrane phospholipids, and preventing the onset of cardiovascular diseases.
Thanks to its antioxidant action, it favours the absorption of Vitamin A, along with lipoproteins and the physiological processes connected to them, protecting it from oxidation.
Vitamin E is also called Tocopherol, a Greek name derived from "tocos" and "pherein", meaning respectively "birth" and "to carry on." The name underlines the importance of Vitamin E for whole-body well-being and for reproduction.
