For some reason, all of the high concentration (95%) mixed tocopherol vitamin e oil is sold in the USA.
I could find more than 10 different US based sources selling "natural mixed tocopherol 95%" and not a single EU based one. Which makes me wonder if there is some kind of EU regulation that prevents the sale of it.
For somebody living in europe, ordering from the USA is expensive, takes forever and if you're unlucky customs will not let the package through.
Anyway, I've found 2 different sources based in the UK for mixed tocopherol oil, both unfortunately only at a concentration of about 70% total tocopherols:

Vitamin E Natural (100%) | Vitamins | Aromantic
They seem to be very similar, but the second source lists sunflower oil as another ingredient, the first one doesn't provide any information on what the other 30% are.
Other options available on amazon in most european countries would be:
"Unique E" (which apparently isn't as good as it used to be according to the thread here: Good Quality Vitamin E
"Thorne Ultimate-E" (which is really expensive. It does look pretty good though)
All other products seem to be either alpha-tocopherol only or have other oils added to them.
So yeah. Why the hell is there no mixed tocopherol oil above 70% available anywhere in europe?
Does anybody maybe know of a source that I haven't listed here? Are all you euro-peats just ordering from US sources and pray that customs will let the package through?
