Without it, the body\u2019s immune system is impaired and the body becomes more at risk to coronary heart disease, cognitive decline, eye health issues, muscle weakness and even cancer. It is so important that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommends 15 mg of Vitamin E daily. Classically, the \u03b1-Tocopherol analogue was affirmed as the most important analogue to meet human Vitamin E requirements. The main function of \u03b1-tocopherol in humans is that of a fat-soluble antioxidant. Fats, which are an integral part of all cell membranes, are vulnerable to damage through lipid peroxidation by free radicals caused by oxidative stress.<\/p>\n<p>However, subsequent research has shown that the other Vitamin E analogues are very important to human health and can do far more than address a basic need. These other analogues are also known to be potent antioxidants, and have benefits that reach beyond simply preventing a deficiency. Tocotrienols and \u03b3-tocopherol are thought to be better scavengers of peroxyl radicals and reactive nitrogen species, respectively, than \u03b1-tocopherol.

It is one of the manifestations of oxidative stress, and the pathways that generate the mediators of inflammation, such as adhesion molecules and interleukins, are all induced by oxidative stress. Chronic inflammation has been linked to the progression of neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer\u2019s disease, cardiovascular disease, cancer and diabetes.<\/p>\n<p>The unsaturated side chains of Tocotrienols make it a very effective reactive oxygen species scavenger. The presence of these extra double bonds in the side chain makes Tocotrienols a smaller molecule compared to Tocopherol. This smaller size ensures better flexibility with higher cellular activity. Tocotrienols manifest their anti-Inflammatory effects via regulating key players involved in pro-inflammatory pathways such as signalling pathways that involve nuclear factor kappa B (NF-k\u03b2), cyclooxygenase 2 (COX2) and tumour necrosis factor (TNF) (Wu et al., 2008).<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row use_custom_gutter=&#8221;on&#8221; gutter_width=&#8221;0&#8243; disabled_on=&#8221;on|on|on&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Image Row&#8221; module_class=&#8221; et_pb_row_fullwidth&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.0.9&#8243; width=&#8221;100%&#8221; width_tablet=&#8221;100%&#8221; width_phone=&#8221;&#8221; width_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; max_width=&#8221;100%&#8221; max_width_tablet=&#8221;100%&#8221; max_width_phone=&#8221;&#8221; max_width_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;100px||||false|false&#8221; custom_margin_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; custom_margin_phone=&#8221;70px||||false|false&#8221; custom_margin_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; box_shadow_style=&#8221;preset7&#8243; box_shadow_horizontal=&#8221;0px&#8221; box_shadow_vertical=&#8221;-100px&#8221; box_shadow_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; box_shadow_vertical_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; box_shadow_vertical_phone=&#8221;-70px&#8221; box_shadow_vertical_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; make_fullwidth=&#8221;on&#8221; disabled=&#8221;on&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.25&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/www.klkoleo.com\/davoslife\/estore\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/juice-bar-32-2.png&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Blurred-Leaf&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.8.2&#8243; max_width_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; max_width_phone=&#8221;70%&#8221; max_width_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;|||-30px&#8221; filter_blur=&#8221;10px&#8221; animation_style=&#8221;slide&#8221; animation_direction=&#8221;left&#8221; animation_duration=&#8221;1300ms&#8221; animation_intensity_slide=&#8221;3%&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; always_center_on_mobile=&#8221;off&#8221; disabled_on=&#8221;on|on|off&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<br \/>\n[\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; admin_label=&#8221;Products Section&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.0.9&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|0px|0px|0px|false|false&#8221;][et_pb_row admin_label=&#8221;Section Header Row&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.0.9&#8243; width=&#8221;79%&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||27px||false|false&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.25&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Better for you, Naturally&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.0.9&#8243; text_font_size=&#8221;16px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;1.8em&#8221; link_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; ul_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; ol_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; quote_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; header_2_font_size=&#8221;45px&#8221; header_2_letter_spacing=&#8221;3px&#8221; header_2_line_height=&#8221;1.4em&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;center&#8221; max_width=&#8221;700px&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;0px||||false|false&#8221; custom_margin_tablet=&#8221;0px|||&#8221; custom_margin_phone=&#8221;|||&#8221; custom_margin_last_edited=&#8221;off|desktop&#8221; header_2_font_size_tablet=&#8221;34px&#8221; header_2_font_size_phone=&#8221;24px&#8221; header_2_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; header_2_font_size__hover_enabled=&#8221;off|hover&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2>Better for you, Naturally<\/h2>\n<p>While synthetic tocopherol ingredients exist in the market, synthetic Tocotrienols do not and are therefore sourced and isolated from a wide array of plants.

For example, you would need to consume 80 g of palm oil daily in order to get 50 mg of Tocotrienols in your diet. These amounts are not practical, and are further compounded with the fact that fats and fat-soluble compounds, including Tocotrienols, are only absorbed in the gut when enzymes known as lipases and bile salts (produced by the liver) are produced.<\/p>\n<p>These enzymes and bile salts are only produced in the body when dietary fat meets a certain threshold. Thus, the successful absorption of Tocotrienols is dependent on its consumption together with a diet high in fat. Huge variabilities exist between individuals in terms of absorption efficiency. This condition is further exacerbated by the fact that plasma concentrations of Tocotrienols are found to be much lower compared to tocopherols. Thus, it is not merely sufficient to consume Tocotrienols, but also crucial that the Tocotrienols are formulated in a way that gives you enhanced absorption of Tocotrienols into your body so that its potent antioxidative and anti-inflammatory effects can be maximised by the cells of the body.<\/p>\n<p>Daily supplementation with a formulated self-emulsifying Tocotrienols delivery system such as DavosLife E3 Complete is the best way to ensure that you get sufficient amounts of Tocotrienols daily to support your overall wellness.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;2_5&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.25&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; admin_label=&#8221;Contact Section&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.0.9&#8243; background_image=&#8221;https:\/\/www.klkoleo.com\/davoslife\/estore\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Idyllic-summer-landscape-with-clear-mountain-lake-in-the-Alps.jpg&#8221; background_position=&#8221;bottom_center&#8221; saved_tabs=&#8221;all&#8221;][et_pb_row admin_label=&#8221;Contact Us Row&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.0.9&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||0px||false|false&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.25&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;We\u2019re here for you&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.0.9&#8243; text_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; text_font_size=&#8221;18px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;1.8em&#8221; header_text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; header_2_font_size=&#8221;45px&#8221; header_2_letter_spacing=&#8221;3px&#8221; header_2_line_height=&#8221;1.4em&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;center&#8221; max_width=&#8221;800px&#8221; module_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; custom_margin_tablet=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; custom_margin_phone=&#8221;|||&#8221; custom_margin_last_edited=&#8221;off|phone&#8221; header_2_font_size_tablet=&#8221;34px&#8221; header_2_font_size_phone=&#8221;24px&#8221; header_2_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; text_text_shadow_style=&#8221;preset5&#8243; text_text_shadow_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; header_text_shadow_style=&#8221;preset5&#8243; header_text_shadow_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; text_text_align=&#8221;center&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2>We\u2019re here for you<\/h2>\n<p>For your overall health and well-being, visit our estore for direct purchase DavosLife E3 Complete, softgel.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.klkoleo.com\/davoslife\/estore\/products\/&#8221; button_text=&#8221;Buy Now&#8221; button_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.0.9&#8243; custom_button=&#8221;on&#8221; button_text_size=&#8221;18px&#8221; button_text_color=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; button_bg_color=&#8221;#f6981e&#8221; button_border_width=&#8221;1px&#8221; button_border_color=&#8221;#f6981e&#8221; button_border_radius=&#8221;30px&#8221; z_index_tablet=&#8221;500&#8243; button_text_shadow_horizontal_length_tablet=&#8221;0px&#8221; button_text_shadow_vertical_length_tablet=&#8221;0px&#8221; button_text_shadow_blur_strength_tablet=&#8221;1px&#8221; box_shadow_horizontal_tablet=&#8221;0px&#8221; box_shadow_vertical_tablet=&#8221;0px&#8221; box_shadow_blur_tablet=&#8221;40px&#8221; box_shadow_spread_tablet=&#8221;0px&#8221; button_bg_color__hover_enabled=&#8221;on&#8221; button_border_color__hover_enabled=&#8221;on&#8221; button_border_color__hover=&#8221;#f6981e&#8221; button_bg_color__hover=&#8221;rgba(246,152,30,0)&#8221; button_bg_enable_color__hover=&#8221;on&#8221; button_text_color__hover_enabled=&#8221;on&#8221; button_text_color__hover=&#8221;#f6981e&#8221;]<br \/>\n[\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vitamin E is a very important nutrient to our bodies.
