Synopsis

Tocotrienols are members of the vitamin E family, distinct from tocopherols due to their unsaturated side chains, which enhance cellular penetration and antioxidant activity. Found in palm oil, annatto, and rice bran, tocotrienols provide powerful antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective effects. They are commonly used to support cardiovascular health, brain function, liver protection, and healthy aging. Tocotrienols have also been studied for their potential anticancer and cholesterol-lowering properties.
