Re: Vitamin E

Ah now, Rich, there ya go again! How will they patent Vit E?

BTW, those of us who take Vit E should always get the "Mixed tocopherols" Vit E. You want the natural form, so stay away from those products that begin with "d,l' as in d, l-alpha-tocopherol. Most Vit E is just d-alpha-tocopherol which is not balanced. The synthetic stuff will have the "d,l". You want the beta-, gamma-, and delta-tocopherols along with the alpha.
