6 Life-Saving Reasons You Shouldn’t Toss Your Vitamin E Supplement

by Dr. Al Sears

You’ve read and heard about many reports on the “risks” of taking vitamin E. But in a recent issue of his newsletter Health Confidential for Men, Dr. Sears sets the record straight. “There’s not enough space here for me to show you all the studies proving vitamin E is safe and has significant protective benefits,” he writes, “But here are just a few of the proven benefits.” He then lists the following:
1. Vitamin E prevents heart disease.
2. Vitamin E prevents death from all causes - especially heart disease.
3. Vitamin E slows down Alzheimer’s disease.
4. Vitamin E reduces the risk of vision loss from age-related macular degeneration.
5. Vitamin E has benefits for diabetics.
6. Vitamin E lowers the rates of prostate, breast, colon, and cervical cancers.
