Naturally occurring Vitamin E from rice oil contains both tocotrienols are Vitamin E-related compounds recently found to have significantly greater antioxidant properties than the more commonly used Vitamin E (tocopherol), this antioxidant formula utilized three of the most potent tocotrienols -alpha, gamma, and delta - which may protect the body against free radical damage. These tocotrienol constituents from rice oil are provided in the same ratio as was used in several scientific studies. The unsaturated element in tocotrients allow for superior penetration into the body's fatty layers. Studies indicate that the synergistic effect of combining tocotrienols with alpha tocopherol enhances Vitamin E's properties by helping to preserve and extend the activity of other intracellular antioxidants.
