Vitamin E: I don't think that vitamin E in small doses like 200-400 units daily is harmful. I recommend 200 units daily which I feel may be helpful for brain health. However if you have any concerns you can get good amounts of vitamin E from many food sources like nuts, vegetable oil, tomato sauces,etc.
