Gamma Tocotrienol Assists Bone Strength

A new study shows that vitamin E, and in particular the form known as gamma tocotrienol, helps build stronger bones with better biomechanical strength.

Tocotrienols Inhibit Breast Cancer Tumors and Cells

While tocotrienols are widely regarded for their cardiovascular protection it is worth noting that they are well regarded as a potent anti-cancer compound, especially the form known as gamma tocotrienol. A new mouse study shows that dietary intake of tocotrienols prevented an implanted breast cancer tumor from taking hold by preventing it from spreading and directly inducing death in the tumor cells.

Tocotrienols are Effective Bone Builders

A new animal study compared the effectiveness of various forms of vitamin E in the quality of bone formation. The study found that gamma tocotrienol was the best form that supported multiple aspects of bone integrity during the process of normal bone formation.

Tocotrienols Protect Against the Sun’s UVB Radiation

Your skin has the ability to naturally activate its own defence system against UVB radiation. To do this it requires antioxidants within your skin to coordinate an optimal response. Antioxidants such as lycopene (tomatoes), ECGC (green tea), and the tocotrienol form of vitamin E have all been shown to help skin. The most recent study on this subject shows that gamma tocotrienol, but not plain vitamin E (d alpha tocopherol), is able to regulate gene signals in skin to reduce damage caused by IVB radiation.

Gamma Tocotrienol Protects Against Radiation Damage

Americans, compared to the people from any other country in the world, are exposed to the highest levels of radiation during medical CT scanning. Some are exposed to radiation during cancer treatment. And then there is radiation from your garden-variety X-rays, cell phones, microwaves, electric power lines, ionizing solar-flare radiation during plane flights, etc. A new animal study shows that gamma tocotrienol, a unique form of vitamin E, can protect against whole body radiation exposure.

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.

Gamma Tocotrienol Offsets High Levels of Radiation Exposure

A new animal study shows that gamma tocotrienol can powerfully offset the adverse effects of radiation exposure, including the reduction of peroxynitrite, the most damaging free radical.

Gamma Tocotrienol May Help Pancreatic Cancer Treatment

A new animal study by researchers at the famed MD Anderson Cancer Center shows that combining gamma tocotrienol with chemotherapy in the treatment of pancreatic cancer reduced tumor growth and boosted the killing properties of the drug. This is an important finding since pancreatic cancer is a type of cancer that is often resistant to treatment.

The Five Key Things You Can Do to Lower LDL Cholesterol Healthfully

It is high time that any person trying to improve their LDL cholesterol levels increases their understanding of the subject beyond the kindergarten-level training of good and bad cholesterol, avoiding foods with cholesterol, and taking toxic high doses of statin drugs to knock down numbers.
