Vitamin E can be taken as a dietary supplement for various reasons:
In medicine, Vitamin E has applications in the following conditions:
Please note that taking Vitamin E as a supplement should be done under the guidance of a healthcare professional, as excessive intake may have adverse effects.
Vitamin E plays a role in protecting red blood cells against hemolysis; has protective effects against free radicals on polyunsaturated fatty acids found in cell membranes; plays a role in preventing oxidation of vitamins A and C.
Overdosage (>1 gm) has been linked to mild adverse effects such as hypertension, tiredness, diarrhea, and myopathy.
In the body, vitamin E functions as an antioxidant. Polyunsaturated fatty acids (components of cellular membranes) and other oxygen-sensitive compounds, such as vitamins A and C, are protected against oxidation by vitamin E. Vitamin E insufficiency can induce irritability, edema, thrombosis, and hemolytic anemia in preterm newborns. Adults and children with low serum tocopherol concentrations have been found to have creatinuria, ceroid deposition, muscular weakness, reduced erythrocyte survival, or enhanced in vitro hemolysis by oxidizing agents.
Vitamin E may decrease vitamin A absorption and function, as well as increase the impact of warfarin.
There is no absolute contraindication except known hypersensitivity to vitamin E.
When taken in the appropriate dosage, vitamin E is safe to take throughout pregnancy and breastfeeding. Higher dosages have yet to be established.
Keep away from light and heat in a dry area. Keep out of children's reach.
