Vitamin E Tocotrienols

Discover the benefits of Vitamin E tocotrienols, backed by science, and how they support heart, brain, skin, and overall health.

What is Vitamin E Tocotrienols?

Tocotrienols are part of the Vitamin E family, and they are structurally similar to Tocopherol with one key difference.

Instead of a saturated phytyl tail, Tocotrienols have an unsaturated side chain making it a stronger antioxidant than Tocopherol.

What Makes It Unique & Effective?​

Vitamin E Tocotrienols act as a chain-breaking antioxidant by preventing the oxidation of fats in our bodies and scavenging harmful free radicals.

 

The unique thing about Vitamin E Tocotrienols is that their unsaturated side chain allows them to penetrate cell membranes more effectively than other types of antioxidants.

 

Tocotrienols’ unique structure allows it to be more effective at neutralising harmful free radicals in our body that causes neurodegenerative and other inflammatory diseases.

 

Vitamin E Tocotrienols are proven to reduce inflammation and protect cellular damage from aging or diseases.

Is It Natural?

Yes, palm oil is one of the most abundant natural sources of Vitamin E Tocotrienols.

AvantHealth took it a step further, our products are also vegan-friendly. We also work closely with the Malaysian Palm Oil Board (MPOB) for sustainable extraction of this bioactive.
