    Vitamin E but with PUFA base—risks vs. benefits

    I recently bought some vitamin E oil, only to realise once I got home that it used sunflower oil as a base (it's mostly sunflower oil, with a reasonably high concentration of vitamin E added). I intended to use this oil topically. My question is: is applying this PUFA to my skin likely to be...

    Metabolic syndrome patients have functional deficiency of vitamin E

    I am posting this mostly for the revelation of the study that blood levels of vitamin E are not indicative of tissue levels. This is yet another example of the unreliability of blood tests to demonstrate tissue levels or activity of a specific substance like estrogen or, in this case, vitamins...

    Alpha Tocopherol (Vit E) Increases Estrogen?

    I am now in Korea. They only have alpha tocopherol vitamin E supplements (400 & 1000 IU) all of which are soy derived (Koreans are obsessed with soy :? ). I heard that Peat recommends the mixed vit. E supplements. Should I continue this experiment? I don't feel very different when I take those...

    Ray - Vitamin E - Liver

    Had never noticed this before: http://raypeat.com/articles/articles/vitamin-e.shtml That it contains vitamin A is well known, and K fairly well known, but I hadn't figured it as a source of vitamin E. Given that supplement forms of E can be problematic, it's good to know we can get it...

    Peat Said Vitamin E Should Be Used Sparingly In 2000 Interview

    From the year 2000 interview with Mary Shomon: "Because the quality of commercial nutritional supplements is dangerously low, the only supplement I generally advocate is vitamin E, and that should be used sparingly." - RP http://www.thyroid-info.com/articles/ray-peat.htm

    Taurine Enhances Bioavailability Of Vitamins K, A, D, E

    The fat soluble vitamins are a great tool to help metabolism and improve overall health. However their oral usage is sometimes hindered by their requirements for ingestion of fat. In the case of vitamin K2 (MK-4) the fat requirement can be large (35g+) and thus inconvenient to implement while on...

    Vitamin E Gives Me Severe Fatigue

    I've seen some threads on this forum where certain people came out with the torches and pitchforks over vitamin E. If you have a torch or pitchfork, this is not the thread you are looking for. You can go now. For everyone else, I've tried two kinds of vitamin E, the latest being Unique E. And...

    Vitamin E Protects Immune System From Iron Overload

    I think the study mentions only the antioxidant function of vitamin E since official medicine does not recognize any of its other properties like protecting against estrogen or PUFA toxicity. The actual study describes how the immune system is damaged by ferroptosis - an iron dependent apoptosis...

    Vitamin E- progesterone surrogate?

    My period is late this cycle. The past several months I've been a few days late, but this month it seems to be even a few extra days. I started using Vitamin E transdermally the last 2 weeks or so. Hard to measure how much I'm slathering on, but probably less than 400iu per day. Is it possible...

    Vitamin E (alpha Tocopherol) Is Effective Anti-depressant

    These studies were referenced by the gut-serotonin study I posted recently, and I thought they would be interesting to people here. The key point is that alpha tocopherol was most effective when administered chronically and at a relatively low dose of 10mg/kg for a mouse, which translates to...
