Tocotrienols: potent antioxidants and anti-inflammatory agents

Vitamin E nutrients Tocotrienols have wide-reaching, clinically proven health benefits

Part of the vitamin E family, Tocotrienols are potent antioxidants and anti-inflammatory agents. Tocotrienols have clinically proven health benefits within the following areas:

Heart health

  • Tocotrienols have unique cholesterol lowering properties that are not shared by α-Tocopherol (1,4).
  • Supplementation with Tocotrienols improved plasma total cholesterol, triglycerides and high-density lipoproteins (HDL) when compared to placebo (2,3).

Brain health

  • α-Tocotrienol is the most potent neuroprotective Vitamin E isomer (5).
  • It is more effective than α-Tocopherol  in preventing glutamate-induced brain injury and death (1).

Liver health

  • Tocotrienols are clinically proven to improve liver health biomarkers and liver pathophysiology in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease patients (6).

Bone health

  • Tocotrienols improve bone density by increasing osteoblast number, mineral deposition, bone formation activity, and decreasing osteoblast number, erosion on bone, and bone resorption activity (1).
  • In contrast the bone protecting benefits of α-Tocopherol are inconsistent and contradictory (7).

Skin health

  • Tocotrienols have skin lightening properties8, which is no seen in α-Tocopherol.
  • Clinical trials have confirmed Tocotrienols’ efficiency in reducing skin redness and pigmentation following UV irradiation (9).
  • Tocotrienols stimulate collagen synthesis in the skin (10).
Naturally derived Tocotrienol

Davoslife E3 is a line of Tocotrienols products naturally derived from non-GMO palm fruits (Elaeis guineensis) sourced directly from RSPO-certified plantations. They contain a full spectrum of Tocotrienol isomers (α-, β-, γ-, δ-) and α-Tocopherol at a perfectly balanced ratio. Davoslife E3 complies with major international regulatory standards on Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) and other contaminants in food and health supplements.

Dosage recommendations: 50-100 mg Tocotrienols daily for overall wellness.
