Tocotrienol are up to 300% better and more effectively absorbed compared to Tocopherols. Tocopherols are generally present in common vegetable oils while the richest source of tocotrienols, are found in virgin crude palm oil, a vegetable oil that is trans-fat free.

Tocotrienols have powerful health effect, with delta-tocotrienol having the greatest effect. Studies demonstrate that taking tocotrienols orally is an effective way to elevate blood plasma levels to concentrations that could help protect health. Studies have found that all the tocotrienols has much higher cardioprotective properties compared to regular alpha-tocopherol vitamin E. Gamma-tocotrienol and alpha-tocotrienol have the highest cardioprotective function but not delta-tocotrienol.

Similar to what is found in nature (palm oil, etc) Naturally Better Vitamin E has the highest levels of gamma- and alpha-tocotrienol, making it the preferred choice of mixed tocotrienols for nutritional supplements for heart health. Tocotrienols belong to the fat soluble vitamin E family and provide health benefits including cholesterol reduction, arterial stiffness reduction, improved ventricular function and regression of atherosclerosis.

The Naturally Better Vitamin E system is a self-emulsifying delivery system that provides a consistent oral absorption of tocotrienols. It contains a mixture of oil and food emulsifiers at a ratio that will self-emulsify in the gastrointestinal tract. In addition, the Naturally Better Vitamin E system supports the absorption of tocotrienols through the lymphatic system. The system results in the rapid absorption of tocotrienols, independent of dietary fat or food intake.
