A member asked:
Is vitamin e safe to take as a supplement? i have read a few articles which hold diametrically opposing views.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Safe: stick with a natural vitamin E. Many of the synthetic vitamin E supplements use only one isomer of the tocopherol and that has been associated with negative effects. There is 30 years of worldwide data that shoe vitamin E level is more important than cholesterol.
