RE: Vitamin E health benefits and daily recommendation. - by @dcrypto

in #health6 years ago (edited)

Little known fact about vitamin E supplementation is that it can actually cause inflammation in certain people, depending on 3 specific genetic variants that have been identified in genes related to inflammation signaling molecules. I rarely see ever clients that don't have at least one of those gene variants.

Definitely get plenty of E from food, but most people should really avoid supplementing with doses of extra E beyond what might be found in most multivitamins or skincare products. It's one of the reasons generally why long term E supplementation has been shown to cause more problems than its worth.
