Gamma Tocotrienol Assists Bone StrengthThursday, October 08, 2009 - Byron J. Richards, CCNA new study shows that vitamin E, and in particular the form known as gamma tocotrienol, helps build stronger bones with better biomechanical strength. The authors concluded, “Vitamin E supplementation, especially with the gamma isomer, improves bone structure, which contributed to stronger bone. Therefore, vitamin E has the potential to be used as an anabolic agent to treat osteoporosis or as bone supplements for young adults to prevent osteoporosis in later years.” This new study goes along with three earlier studies lending support to the tocotrienol form of vitamin E as a superior bone support nutrient. The earlier studies showed that tocotrienols reduce inflammation in bone that leads to bone loss, can offset the harmful effects of steroid use on bones, and assist in the process of normal bone calcification. While tocotrienols are often used for cardiovascular and brain health, here we see that they are yet another wonderful nutrient for bone health.
