Is it safe to consume vitamin e 400 mg capsules on a regular basis for long term use.?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes if natural/mixed: It is safe to take natural vitamin e complex with mixed tocopherols in doses of 1000 iu/day or less ; there are many potential benefits. The only harmful effects have been found when taking either extremely high doses ;/or taking synthetic vitamin e (labelled dl-alpha tocpherol vs. Natural d-alpha form). It's wise to take one with mixed tocopherols (beta, delta ; gamma). See http://bit.Ly/1a4eoyy.
