WHAT ARE THE TOCOPHEROL COMPLEX AND EVNOL COMPONENTS IN AO BOOSTER?
The vitamin E family has eight members: four tocopherols and four tocotrienols—alpha, beta, delta, and gamma (EVNol is a registered tocotrienol complex), all of which are in AO Booster. Research suggests that a mix of tocopherols and tocotrienols provides optimal health benefits, as opposed to just vitamin E (d-alpha tocopherol).
Dr. Karin Granstrom Jordan writes: "Although alpha-tocopherol has long been known as an important antioxidant, research has shown that the complete vitamin E team is much more effective. The different forms of vitamin E have complementary effects as free radical scavengers. Together, they can combat a wider spectrum of free radicals than alpha-tocopherol alone."
Without diminishing the well-known benefits of d-alpha tocopherol, the gamma tocopherol component can be just as important, if not more so. Research has suggested that supplementing with only the alpha tocopherol component (which you usually find in most supplements) can significantly lower the gamma tocopherol level in the body.
According to vitamin E expert, Dr. Maret G. Traber, “While both alpha and gamma tocopherol are powerful antioxidants, gamma tocopherol has a unique function. Due to its different chemical structure, gamma tocopherol captures reactive nitrogen species, which, like reactive oxygen species, can damage proteins, lipids, and DNA.”
In addition to its impressive antioxidant properties, gamma tocopherol has been shown to offer superior anti-inflammatory benefits.Inflammation is a primary culprit in nearly all degenerative diseases. Gamma tocopherol also increases the levels of both alpha and gamma tocopherol, while alpha tocopherol can only decrease the levels of gamma tocopherol in the body. AO Booster contains more gamma tocopherol than the other three tocopherols combined.
Tocotrienols may even be more powerful free radical scavengers than the tocopherols. According to research by Dr. Lester Packer and Dr. Barrie Tan, tocotrienols can have 30-60 times more antioxidant power than alpha tocopherol.
In addition to their powerful antioxidant properties, tocotrienols offer a wide range of health benefits, such as:
- Powerful support against cancer – Like tocopherols, tocotrienols help inhibit various mechanisms necessary for tumor development and growth.
- Improvement of cholesterol levels – Tocotrienols effectively block the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase, one of the metabolic steps in the production of cholesterol.
-
Protection against cardiovascular diseases – Tocotrienols reduce blood levels of homocysteine (elevated levels have been linked to cardiovascular diseases).A study showed that tocotrienols offered these benefits even more powerfully than folic acid, which is often considered the main homocysteine-lowering
Nutrition substance. - Protection against heart attack or stroke – Tocotrienols provide resistance to ischemia, which is defined as insufficient blood supply to an organ or part of the body, especially the heart muscles.
- Improvement of metabolic syndrome – Tocotrienols positively influence and can help reverse many aspects of metabolic syndrome. This syndrome includes high blood pressure, high blood sugar, unhealthy cholesterol levels, and excess belly fat.
- Support against liver cancer and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) – Emerging research reveals that tocotrienols provide powerful support for liver health, with equally powerful protection against liver cancer and NAFLD.
SUMMARY
The benefits of combining all four tocopherols and all four tocotrienols are just the tip of the iceberg. Research continues to reveal even more potential benefits, such as protection against diabetes, osteoporosis, and neurodegenerative diseases. The tocopherols and tocotrienols provided through
