Video Description:If ever there was a super-hero vitamin, Vitamin E would be it! Learn why, right here.
Transcript:Vitamin E is a super-hero among nutrients, fighting the evil effects of free radicals and other villains who would invade your system. Vitamin E doesn’t have an alias, but it doesn’t need one: you’ll remember it as one of the body’s most potent antioxidants. An antioxidant acts to protect your cells against the damage of free radicals, which are by-products of energy metabolism in your body. Vitamin E further fights “bad guys” by pumping up your immune system. AND the vitamin helps in wound healing and DNA repair! To get your daily dose, enjoy peanut butter, sunflower seeds, vegetable oil, and wheat germ. Women should aim for 8 milligrams daily, while men need 10 milligrams. However, because Vitamin E is stored in your liver, it’s hard not to get enough of the superhero nutrient—so you don’t have to go overboard munching on sunflower seeds!
