Is vitamin E actually good for our skin? Luckily, it appears that my years of blindly using vitamin E products weren’t a waste, as the compound actually does have a beneficial effect on our skin. On the one hand, it’s an anti-inflammatory, which means it can help prevent redness, puffiness, and other general inflammation in our skin. But on the other, its antioxidant properties also mean that it can help prevent signs of aging and wrinkles, Zeitlin explained. Dr. D’Adamo added that it can also help people get rid of scars.
This year, Malaysian people are honoring a tree with oil-rich fruit because 2017 marks 100 years of Malaysian palm oil production. This edible oil has made a profound impact on the country. Not only does Malaysian certified sustainable palm oil provide nutrition to more than three billion people worldwide, it has been credited with reducing poverty and improving living conditions in this progressive nation. So why should Americans join in the celebration? Because more than 80 percent of the palm oil used in the U.S. is sourced from Malaysia. You’ll find this “golden oil” in many of your favorite foods, from peanut butters to candy to granola bars.
itamin E, known as tocopherol, comes in eight forms, but only one is retained by the human body: Alpha Tocopherol. The other seven are excreted by the liver.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) determined in June 2015 that partially hydrogenated oil – American’s primary source of artificial trans fats – should be removed from the food supply. Consuming trans fat may raise the level of LDL (or bad) cholesterol in your blood which may increase your risk of cardiovascular disease. While the FDA gave food manufacturers three years to remove this unhealthy ingredient from their products, many manufacturers have already made the switch to Malaysian certified sustainable palm oil. This up-and-coming oil is naturally trans fat-free, non-GMO and loaded with nutrients, qualities that are important to many of today’s shoppers.
Vitamin E is like the bouncer to stress chemicals in your body. For your brain, that’s important because there are so many toxic chemicals that need to be kicked out of the party.
