Scientists have found that gamma and delta tocotrienols, derived naturally from palm oil, are potent in lowering triglyceride levels (-27%) in the blood after two months of tocotrienol supplementation. In addition, tocotrienol-treated subjects in the double blind, placebo-controlled human trials showed decreasing trends in average weight, body fat mass, body fat percentage and waist measurement. The study hence points to the potential of tocotrienols as a natural remedy in fighting obesity and its related diseases.<\/p>\n
