Vitamin E is one of the most important antioxidant vitamins. People who take 400 IU of vitamin E daily are far less likely to experience premature aging of the arteries and the immune system. But does the form of vitamin E make a difference? Yes.
Two studies published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition last year concluded that natural vitamin E supplements are twice as effective as the synthetic versions because natural E is absorbed more readily by the body. Natural vitamin E is in the chemical form of d-alpha-tocopherol. Synthetic vitamin E is the form of dl-alpha-tocopherol.
