Every woman would want to look beautiful. One important factor that supports a woman's beauty is skin. Having skin fresh, smooth and tight to every woman's dream to look beautiful. In contrast, skin health is not maintained will make skin dull and wrinkled, will automatically reduce a person's beauty. Although someone has a pretty face, but if her skin dull and wrinkled, the charm will also fade.To make your skin always looks fresh and tight, skin care can not be abandoned. Not only from the outside such as bath treatments, facials, scrubs up, from within any treatment is necessary to maintain the beauty and health of skin. The question is, how to maintain healthy skin from the inside? Not hard actually. Only by taking vitamins, especially vitamin E on a regular basis and in accordance with the needs of the body, the skin will look more beautiful naturally.
Vitamin E is very beneficial for skin health. Benefits of vitamin E to the skin has been proven through numerous scientific studies. American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) is one institution that launched about the usefulness of vitamin E for the body. Some of them are beneficial to maintain the freshness and youthful look. Vitamin E also effectively resist ultraviolet light exposure so that the skin remains protected. In addition, vitamin E provides protection to the skin from the adverse effects of ultraviolet light, so the humidity up and the skin is not dry. Humidity is useful to keep the freshness of the skin and prevent wrinkles.
Usually, those who live in urban areas, the risk of skin damage is quite high due to poor environmental conditions. Free radicals derived from sunlight, cigarette smoke, car fumes to be a serious threat to the skin. Various pollution exposure can lead to dull skin and loss of freshness.
Therefore, vitamin E would be an easy solution to stay beautiful. There are many choices of food that can be consumed to get the intake of vitamin E. Broccoli, mangoes, nuts, soybean oil, olive oil, avocados and kiwi fruit are some foods that contain vitamin E. Eating these foods regularly are strongly encouraged to meet the needs of vitamin E for our bodies.
But, it should also be noted about how to store and cook food that vitamin E was still up. Soybean and olive oil, for example, should be stored in an airtight container. For, if exposed to air for long periods can reduce or even destroy vitamin E. Similarly with other food ingredients. If cooked too ripe broccoli can reduce the amount of vitamin E in it. These things should be a concern, because it is very unfortunate if we had to consume these foods in large quantities, but did not get the maximum benefit, due to the storage and presentation.
If you are unsure whether the amount of vitamin E in the diet is good or not, vitamin E supplements may be an option. Consuming vitamin E supplements regularly can meet our daily vitamin E requirement. The dose of vitamin E from supplements is guaranteed to meet the daily requirement of vitamin E in the body. If adequate intake of vitamin E, we do not have to worry about the problem of skin dull and wrinkled. The skin will become toned, fresh and smooth. Health and natural beauty of the skin will be ours.

Tocotrienols and tocopherols are members of the Vitamin E family. While very similar in structure, tocotrienol differ in that it has an unsaturated side chain compared to a saturated side chain in tocopherol. Due to its unsaturated side chain, tocotrienol has exhibited numerous unique and additional biological activities, which are not shown by tocopherol. As such, tocotrienol has been touted as the Vitamin E of the 21st Century.
ReplyDeleteThese are the known benefits of tocotrienols (Super Vitamin E) over tocopherol (regular vitamin E) for skin nutrition and nourishment :-
i) Tocotrienol is a natural member of the Vitamin E and it is a much more potent antioxidant (40-60 times in biological system) compared to the tocopherol. Hence confer better and efficient protection against the onslaught of free radicals generated in the skin.
ii) Fluidity properties of tocotrienols - Tocotrienols, with their unsaturated side chain, allow them to pass through the membrane bi-layer (mainly made up of unsaturated fatty acid) in a more efficient manner and faster rate compared to the all saturated tocopherol.
iii) Tocotrienol, either through oral or topical application has been shown to preferentially accumulate at the stratum corneum. Our body preferentially accumulates tocotrienols form of vitamin E in the skin. The poly-unsaturated isoprenoid side chain of tocotrienols allows them to move efficiently and effectively across the unsaturated cell bilayer membrane when compared to alpha-tocopherol. Being a more potent antioxidant, it is the skin's first line defense.
iv) Since tocotrienol is a more potent biological antioxidant, it confers greater protection against oxidative damage and also is the skin's first line of defense against UV-induced oxidative damage. Hence tocotrienol actually preserves tocopherols in the skin.
v) Studies also showed that tocotrienols do prevent skin aging and oxidation of the collagen matrix under the skin.
vi) Researchers at the School of Medicine, Tokai University, Japan found that administration of palm tocotrienol complex resulted in a reduction of oxidative stress risks and hence may be a possible compound for anti-aging. Oxidative damage due to free radicals or reactive oxygen species has been implicated in the process of aging (“Free Radical Theory of Aging”). It was found that palm tocotrienol complex significantly prevented protein oxidation and reduced the accumulation of protein carbonyl (a good indicator of oxidative stress during aging).
Palm tocotrienol complex recovered the mean life span of the UVB irradiated group compared to the non-irradiated group, whereas alpha-tocopherol administration did not give a significant recovery. This indicates that palm tocotrienol complex has a greater protective function against acute oxidative stress induced by UVB irradiation compared to the regular alpha-tocopherol vitamin E.
vii) Led by Prof. KH Yuen, researchers at the University Science Malaysia conducted a double blind placebo-controlled clinical study on volunteers with androgenetic alopecia (male pattern baldness). The volunteers were randomized to receive oral tocotrienols (Tocomin SupraBio®, Carotech Inc.) or placebo. Hair counts and weight of hair in pre-selected evaluation area were measured before and every month after initiation of the study. An average of 34.5% increase in the number of hair was observed after 8-month tocotrienol supplementation (Lim AB et al. Tropical Life Sciences Research, 2010; 21(2):91-99). In view of the proven efficacy of Tocomin SupraBio® in promoting hair growth in men and women suffering from androgenetic alopecia, the United States Patent and Trademark Office has granted a patent for Tocomin SupraBio® as a hair growth formulation.
