Vitamin E - £9.95
More effectively absorbed than the synthetic dl-alpha form, this plant source vitamin E is a powerful anti-oxidant which can help protect against heart disease and cancer by reducing the damage to the cells and artery walls by destructive 'free radicals'. It reduces the risk of strokes and thrombosis by helping the blood flow freely without clotting within the vessels. Trials at Papworth Hospital confirmed that 800iu daily can reduce the risk of heart attack by 75% (aspirin showed 25%-30% benefit). A safe long term preventative.
60 or 180 capsules
Dosage: 1 - 2 capsules daily. For menopausal hot flushes, up to 3 capsules daily - highly recommended for breast cancer patients taking anti-oestrogen drugs. N.B. Avoid high doses alongside anticoagulants like Warfarin.
