Clinical Significance: | Vitamin E is fat-soluble plant-derived antioxidant and is a part of the essential dietary supplement group of vitamins. Vitamin E includes four tocopherols: alpha-, beta-, gamma-, and delta-Tocopherol. All tocopherols have similar but not identical structure. Only beta- and gamma-tocopherol are isobaric compounds. In terms of clinical significance, only alpha-Tocopherol is actively retained by the body and is, therefore, a predominant form of Vitamin E in blood. Vitamin E deficiency can cause disorientation, muscle weakness, oxidative stress, numbness, and vision deterioration. Some research suggests that a lack of vitamin E can inhibit the immune cells. Older adults may be particularly at risk. |
