What is Vitacost Gamma E Tocopherol Complex?

Vitacost Gamma E Tocopherol Complex contains a combination of compounds belonging to the vitamin E family. Vitamin E is not one molecule but a family of eight related compounds known as tocopherols and tocotrienols—each with its own unique biological activities. The tocopherol and tocotrienol subfamilies are each composed of alpha, beta, gamma and delta fractions. 

Vitamin E is a fat-soluble antioxidant that stops the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) formed when fat undergoes oxidation. Scientists are investigating whether, by limiting free-radical production and possibly through other mechanisms, vitamin E might help delay undesirable health consequences related to free radicals.*

Gamma tocopherol has been shown to have powerful antioxidant properties. In particular, it works to scavenge some of the most damaging free radicals, such as nitrogen dioxide (a major constituent of vehicle exhaust and cigarette smoke) and peroxynitrate (formed through regular cellular metabolism).*
