Vitamin B

Vitamin E is a fat-soluble antioxidant that protects cells from oxidative damage caused by free radicals. It plays an important role in immune function, skin health and the maintenance of healthy blood vessels. Because it is fat-soluble, vitamin E is stored in body fat and the liver, which means deficiency is uncommon in people with a balanced diet, but those with fat malabsorption conditions or very low-fat diets may benefit from supplementation.

This collection includes vitamin E in its natural d-alpha tocopherol form as well as mixed tocopherol formulas that provide a broader spectrum of vitamin E activity. Topical vitamin E oils are also available for direct skin application, commonly used to support scar healing, dry skin and sun-damaged areas.

Vitamin E and Its Role in Everyday Health

Vitamin E works primarily as an antioxidant, neutralising free radicals that can damage cells and contribute to ageing and chronic disease. It also supports immune cell function and helps maintain healthy skin by protecting cell membranes from oxidative stress. New Zealand's high UV index means skin is exposed to significant oxidative stress year-round, making antioxidant support particularly relevant for people spending time outdoors.

Natural vs Synthetic Vitamin E

Natural vitamin E (d-alpha tocopherol) is derived from plant oils and is more bioavailable than the synthetic form (dl-alpha tocopherol). When choosing a supplement, look for the natural form on the label. Mixed tocopherol formulas include alpha, beta, gamma and delta tocopherols, which more closely mirror the range of vitamin E found in whole foods and may offer broader antioxidant coverage.

Common Questions

Can vitamin E help with scars?

Topical vitamin E is widely used to support skin healing and reduce the appearance of scars. The evidence is mixed, with some studies showing benefit and others showing no significant effect. Many people find it helpful for keeping scar tissue moisturised and supple during the healing process. Apply to fully closed wounds only.

Is it safe to take vitamin E every day?

Yes at standard doses. The recommended daily intake for adults is 15mg. High-dose supplementation above 1000mg per day may increase bleeding risk, particularly in people taking blood-thinning medications. Stick to standard doses unless directed otherwise by a health professional.

Does vitamin E interact with any medications?

Vitamin E can enhance the effects of blood-thinning medications such as warfarin. If you are on any anticoagulant therapy, speak with your GP before starting vitamin E supplementation.
