Summary Introduction

Introduction:

Vitamin E is a group of components, which include both tocotrienols and tocopherols. As a fatsoluble antioxidant, it interrupts the propagation of ROS (reactive oxygen species), which disperse through the biological membranes or through the fat when its lipid constituent goes through oxidation by reacting with more reactive radicals of lipid to produce more stable compounds.
