A Harvard School of Public Health study of nearly 40,000 male health professionals found that men who took at least 100 IU of vitamin E daily for at least two years had significantly healthier hearts. Another Harvard Nurses Health Study conducted at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, tracked 87,000 women for up to eight years and found the same results – that vitamin E can enhance heart health.

As an antioxidant, vitamin E is particularly important, because it can protect cell membranes from oxidative damage. It also protects low density lipoproteins (LDLs) and other lipid-rich body constituents in the brain and central nervous system from oxidation. Vitamin E is also important to tissues that come in contact with oxygen, such as lung tissue, providing protection for microsomes and mitochondria. This important vitamin also helps promote the proper metabolism and reception of vitamin D and calcium.

PhysioLogics' Essential E provides d-alpha tocopherols – the natural, active form of vitamin E as it occurs in nature. This form of vitamin E most resembles the vitamin as it is found in food, and because it's 100% natural, it's more bioavailable than synthetic vitamin E when compared on a milligram to milligram basis.

Premium quality Essential E provides:

• Dietary support for overall cellular and cardiovascular health
• Protection against the oxidation of fat and cholesterol
• The body's most important fat-soluble antioxidant*
