Vitamin E belongs to the fat-soluble vitamins, which include vitamins A & D. Vitamin E is an anti-oxidant; it is associated with certain fruits and vegetables. Americans obtain most of their daily allotment from eating salad oils, shortening and margarine. One tablespoon of wheat germ oil contains nearly one-and-a-half time the recommended daily allowance of vitamin E! Sometimes added to foods in chemical form (alpha-tocopherol), vitamin E is converted to suitable form by the body. Among the amazing health benefits ascribed to it are longer life and healthier tissues. Learn more by reading articles by informative Bright Hub contributors.
