Vitamin E is the frontline antioxidant protecting the inside of arterial walls. Vitamin E is the primary vitamin for cardiovascular protection. Vitamin E with tocotrienols provides antioxidant protection for heart tissue. The tocotrienol form of vitamin E is specifically effective at preventing clot formation. Vitamin E thins the blood. Vitamin E's anti-clotting property lowers the risk of stroke caused by a clot blocking blood flow to the brain. Vitamin E protects the heart muscle and arterial lining from oxidative damage, and deficiency causes the heart to cramp more than normal. Vitamin E may support cardiovascular health by preventing cholesterol oxidation and reducing heart disease and stroke risk. Vitamin E is characterized as the most powerful antioxidant for reducing oxidative free-radical damage to tissues. Vitamin E is essential for arterial lining integrity and heart muscle function; deficiency forces the heart to work harder. Carotenoids and lutein from leafy green vegetables also support healthy immune cell membrane structure. Vitamin E supplementation produces dramatic improvements in muscle strength, including the heart muscle. Only the tocotrienol form of vitamin E…
