Tocotrienol Complex necessary for the proper functioning of the body, especially for maintaining the integrity of the cardiovascular system and brain functions

Tocotrienols are chemical compounds that are part of the vitamin E family. This vitamin is a micronutrient necessary for the proper functioning of the body, especially for maintaining the integrity of brain functions. Like other chemical compounds of vitamin E, namely tocopherols, there are four types of tocotrienols found in nature. These are divided into alpha, beta, gamma, and delta tocotrienols.

Vitamin E – the golden capsule, the most potent fat-soluble antioxidant we have, holds a secret. It has proven to be a multifaceted nutritional jewel, with a very specific form called tocotrienol, having the remarkable ability to lower cholesterol, provide potent cardiovascular benefits, and in lab studies, verifiable anticancer effects. In new research, tocotrienol has proven to be 40 to 60 times more potent in neutralizing free radicals than alpha-tocopherol, the most common form of vitamin E in supplements.

The tocotrienol form of vitamin E can lower cholesterol by a stunning 15-22%, and visibly improve the LDL/HDL ratio, while maintaining and even increasing the level of coenzyme Q10. Unlike statins that decrease coenzyme Q10 and cause a range of annoying side effects, including muscle destruction and pain, the tocotrienol form of vitamin E is not toxic, preserves coenzyme Q10, and serves as a potent antioxidant that protects lipoproteins. It also has a remarkable positive effect on cardiovascular function.


 

Toco Sorb Jarrow Benefits

• Tocotrienols are better absorbed than tocopherols, probably due to their unique form and "tails", which allows them to move throughout the cell.
• Tocotrienols are a class of antioxidants much more potent than tocopherols, 40 to 60 times more efficient in annihilating free radicals, and 70% more bioavailable. And comparatively, delta-tocotrienol is 4 times more potent than the other three tocotrienols.
• Two of the tocotrienols, delta, and gamma, can lower cholesterol by 15-22% and improve the LDL/HDL ratio.
• Delta and gamma-tocotrienols decrease triglycerides
• Delta-tocotrienol could offer very efficient protection against atherosclerosis – more than alpha-tocopherol. It may reduce more atheromatous lesions that form on the arterial walls (a first step in atherosclerosis), prevent at least in part monocyte adherence to the endothelium, and inhibit "platelet aggregation" (adherent platelets that clump together).
• Delta-tocotrienol might fight Chlamydia infection. It is implicated in heart disease, and delta-tocotrienol stops Chlamydia from entering cells through "lipid rafts" (yes, real tiny fat boats).
• Alpha-tocopherol, the "famous" vitamin E, can actually compete with the other vitamin E (tocopherols and tocotrienols), blocking their beneficial effects. Moreover, alpha-tocopherol accelerates the breakdown of tocotrienols and tocopherols. In fact, alpha-tocopherol can increase cholesterol if administered in high doses.
• Delta-tocotrienol has a very protective antioxidant role for neurons.
• Laboratory studies with tocotrienols, provide promising initial results in cancer treatment. For example, delta-tocotrienol can inhibit lung, liver, breast, pancreas, skin, and prostate cancer in experiments on mice and human cancer cells.
