is that "ultimate" for thorne's Ultimate E? those numbers are available. what are the benefits to beta tocopherol? its just 1% in thorne. gamma is 40 to 45%, alpha 33.5%, delta 14 to 19%

i thought it was two different things mate, i think ultimate e was mentioned earlierI really don't know why you would ask this if it is very explicitly stated as "Ulimate Gamma."
Even a search through the search engines would give you an unambiguous answer:
ultimate gamma - MetaGer
metager.orgultimate gamma - Google Search
www.google.com
they are two different things-i thought it was two different things mate, i think ultimate e was mentioned earlier
oh yes sir, but it was mentioned before, i thought you were collecting details on the good soy free brandsthey are two different things-
Thorne Ultimate E
Ultimate Gamma Vitamin E by Andrew Lessman of Procaps Laboratories
If I were referring to the first one, I would have no reason not to call it "Thorne Ultimate E"
But I suspect you wanted to mention that Thorne Ultimate E is also worth considering, and I agree.

Some of you could take high alpha one week and high gamma the next...alternate?Tocovit is good as well. Its main advantage over the others is that it contains policosanols. Its weak point is that it doesn't have plenty of gamma-tocopherol. I don't have the isomer distribution of Tocovit off-hand, but I know it to be rich in alpha-tocopherol but not particularly rich in gamma-tocopherol, as compared to unique-e, thorne's, and health natura's.
So it would depend on what you're looking for in the vitamin E. If you're looking for high antioxidant action primarily, a vitamin E that has plenty of alpha-tocopherol and low in gamma-tocopherol would be ideal, as the alpha isomer has the most antioxidant power, and the gamma has the lowest power. If you're like me who wants to lyse plaque that contains foam cells that contain plenty of oxidized LDL, you'd want to get a vitamin E with a lot of gamma-tocopherols.

I look forward to your research and comments...it has got me studying too...re gamma this LE article is a good introduction...I'm having to read up on the Shute brother doctors Evan and Wilfrid from 50 yrs or so ago, and to update it with more recent studies, and then to filter out studies lacking rigor and honesty - so I can understand vitamin E in all its forms and what is the form appropriate for various conditions and appropriate dosing.
In low dosages, it is safe but effects cannot be truly felt. That is how I've used vitamin E till recently.
To use vitamin E for therapeutic purposes, it is difficult. I find it to be so effective in larger doses, but it can be a double-edged sword as in my case a pandora's box of pathogens and toxins and immune responses such as inflammation can be released thst can overwhelm the system.
I have to regularly check many markers to be ahead of what comes next.
You have the right idea though.I look forward to your research and comments...it has got me studying too...re gamma this LE article is a good introduction...
where is the Life extension article posted?I look forward to your research and comments...it has got me studying too...re gamma this LE article is a good introduction...
You have the right idea though.
I'm currently using high gamma to lyse plaque composed of foam cells filled wth oxidized ldl. The lysing seemed to have potentiated my immune system's ability to really kill bacteria, instead of it keep on failing to knock out bacteria, with the bacterial colony's evasive maneuvers, which would keep my immune system in an endless loop of failed attempts, leading to high cytokine production and inflammation and chronic oxidative stress.
But along with that a lot of debri is released that seems to plug the very small blood vessels - capillaries. So, I would experience a huge drop in blood pressure, then the next day it goes back higher again. It can be very frustrating when I did not understand what was going on. That's why hypertension is very hard to overcome.
I have a mind to use high alpha vitamin E because it is also an effective anti-thrombolytic, so that could help clear the capillaries of the debri (although currently I am using potassium citrate to improve the rhiology of blood thru its zeta potential; this may be working as i slept so well last night and instead of 4 wakeups to urinate I only woke up once, which was pretty amazing).
I don't. Like I said (but echoing Ray Peat), if you have good metabolism, you're not as quick or as sensitive to the many insults thrown at you day to day.where is the Life extension article posted?
potassium citrate? you dont get the corn reactions from that?
the good metabolism shouldnt it also resolve hypertension, or increasing metabolism should resolve it. did you post a LE article on gamma btwI don't. Like I said (but echoing Ray Peat), if you have good metabolism, you're not as quick or as sensitive to the many insults thrown at you day to day.
If you can explain that, I'm all ears.the good metabolism shouldnt it also resolve hypertension, or increasing metabolism should resolve it.
increasing metabolism shouldnt make you fly or leap tall buildings in a single bound either.the good metabolism shouldnt it also resolve hypertension, or increasing metabolism should resolve it. did you post a LE article on gamma btw
