Flawed SELECT Study Attacks Vitamin E

The National Cancer Institute’s (NCI) SELECT study (Selenium and Vitamin E Cancer Prevention Trial) for prostate cancer in men was halted this week after initial data analysis showed that selenium and vitamin E, taken alone or together for an average of five years, did not prevent prostate cancer...Well I have a question for the nutritionally-challenged people at NCI; why did you design a study that couldn’t possibly succeed and then waste taxpayer money on it?

AHA to Launch Another Vitamin E Attack

The script reads like a bad Hollywood movie: make vitamin E look bad so men will line up like robots for their statins. Producer: the American Heart Association (AHA). The actors are all worthless no-names on Big Pharma's payroll. The story never ends; but the damage to health is very real.

Vitamin E Offsets Age-Related Impaired Immunity

A new study demonstrates precisely how vitamin E offsets age-related impaired immunity. It does so by correcting communication problems in aged immune cells.

Vitamin E Protects Lungs from Damage

A new study in women over the age of 45 has shown that long-term, regular use of vitamin E can lower the risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) by about 10 percent in both smokers and non-smokers.

Gamma Tocotrienol Helps Kill Prostate Cancer Stem Cells

Prostate cancer treatment targets existing tumor cells but does little to address the source of new prostate cancer cells which come from a smaller group of prostate cancer stem cells. A variety of cell experiments show for the first time that gamma tocotrienol can turn off the activity of these prostate cancer stem cells in existing cancer and stop them from having activity in the first place.

Q10, E, C & Selenium Improve Cardio Health in At-Risk Patients

A 6 month, randomized, placebo-controlled study of 70 patients at high risk for heart disease found that a combination of antioxidant nutrients improved the health of arteries, lowered blood pressure, improved blood sugar metabolism, and boosted HDL cholesterol.

Vitamin E Depletion is a Triggering Event for the Onset of Alzheimer’s

Free radical damage in the brain is not only apparent in Alzheimer’s disease but the same types of damage are already occurring in mild cognitive impairment. This led researchers to try and figure out if the free radical damage occurring in mild cognitive impairment was somehow different from that occurring in Alzheimer’s. Their finding is rather interesting: at the point vitamin E is depleted then free radical damage accelerates and Alzheimer’s sets in.

Tocotrienols Extend Telomeres and Turn Back the Clock

A study with human cells and tocotrienols has demonstrated potent anti-aging effects of tocotrienols, actually extending the length of telomeres while preventing damage to DNA. This study is knocking on the door of the fountain of youth.
