subject: The Countless Plague - Vitamin E Shortage [print this page] Based on data from the Framingham Offspring Study, Harvard Medical School, it is clear that there is an epidemic of vitamin D deficiency may increase the risk of heart disease. (A subject for one more article. "Updates" and then in relation to the above) Few people are aware that there is a serious epidemic deficiency of vitamin E. An editorial in the largest study of vitamin E in the medical records (Am J Clin Nutr november 2006, 84 (5) :1200-7) that 93% of American men and 96% of American women [miserably low] recommended daily intake of 15 IU vitamin E per day.
It is clear that at least 30 to 50 times that level (400 to 1000 IU / day) should be taken to reduce the risk of chronic diseases. The intake of vitamin E, both in the right form and balance with other vitamins, safe and effective, most pharmaceutical companies would think. To participate, but the economic interest of pharmaceutical companies, citizens of dietary supplements so they can medications that often have little or nothing to discourage the disease reversed. Other health benefits "educate" a living, others that they can only get all their food. Medical research indicates otherwise. Can the amount of vitamin E and other essential vitamins, the risk of chronic diseases can not be obtained through supplementation.
Tragically, many doctors and lay people have the misconception that vitamins such as vitamin E can be harmful. There seems to be continuing lack of information in the media and health journals, about the "dangers" of supplementation. Or are not aware of medical research, or are aware of misleading the public for their own benefit. This attempt unstintingly to talk into people not to fill, but for all of your antioxidants in the diet only to gain less unethical, at worst, dangerous. Vitamin E appears to these critics of the firing line, more than any other food, probably because it is the most commonly used drugs today. With thousands of medical studies that the benefits of vitamin E supplements, because he is still controversy and confusion? The doses of vitamin E, studies have shown a beneficial effect can be obtained by appropriate supplementation.
Almost every week a new study on the benefits of vitamin E is released. Almost all the health benefits of the performances or the potential health benefits. Because vitamin E is one of the most popular supplements, it is only when a medical examination or report a possible negative impact of the reports of the media, whether or not to make headlines, and / or deter people from taking of this vitamin is great. The negative results with respect to vitamin E, have shown that some medical evidence that it is affected by other important vitamins well designed synergistically with vitamin E, or a cause and effect of vitamin E for a negative effect on health. Studies of vitamin E, have shown the potential negative effects are few, but most important, because the consciousness of the synergistic effect of the vitamins, and the meaning of the expression of the vitamin.
