Antioxidants and Inflammation

There’s evidence suggesting increased Vitamin E intake can improve immune function and inflammatory processes, helping the body resist infection. It accomplishes this in part by combatting oxidative stress that can cause damage to cells—and even cell death.

You can’t overstate the importance of healthy cells. Many scientists argue that cellular health is the single most important component of overall bodily health. The problem is, cells are bombarded by internal and external stressors on a daily basis—harmful free radicals among them.

Since there are links between RA and oxidative stress, Vitamin E is emerging as a potential way to counteract the development of RA. While studies are ongoing, peripheral research has already begun to lend itself to treatment and therapy models involving Vitamin E.

Want to give your cells an extra boost in the fight against free radicals, while promoting overall health and well-being? Increasing your daily Vitamin E intake may help. It’s an easy way to fight free radical damage and reduce damage caused by oxidative stress—a major contributor to premature aging and a precursor for a range of serious health concerns, including diabetes and cancer.
