The most bioactive form of vitamin E
Annatto Tocotrienols is the scientifically validated, natural source of delta-tocotrienol, which is the most bioactive form of vitamin E. Delta-tocotrienol is a potent, fat soluble anti-oxidant that surpasses all other forms of vitamin E in maintaining the health of the cardiovascular system. Annatto Tocotrienol™ also supports the maintenance of healthy blood sugar levels. As the “next generation” vitamin E, tocotrienols are emerging as a powerful new nutrient for supporting healthy cholesterol balance, combating arterial plaque and maintaining healthy glucose and triglyceride levels.
Vitamin E is often thought of as a single entity. However, it is a mixture of both tocotrienols and tocopherols, two forms of the same vitamin. Scientists have found that although both tocotrienols and tocopherols are similar, they work differently in the body. In fact, the newest research indicates that even though both forms possess antioxidant activity, tocotrienols are superior to tocopherols in ways essential to good health. Furthermore, evidence indicates that tocotrienols are absorbed better than tocopherols1 and that alpha-tocopherol (the most common form of Vitamin E supplementation worldwide) blocks absorption of tocotrienols,2 compromising tocotrienols’ ability to maintain healthy cholesterol levels and sustain the integrity of nerves.
Annatto Tocotrienols is produced exclusively from annatto, which yields a superior tocotrienol profile with over 90% delta fraction (the most active form), and free of alpha tocopherol, which can reduce tocotrienol effectiveness.
