About VitaMx | Tocotrienol Oil 50% (Vitamin E)

Tocotrienols are members of the Vitamin E family, similar to tocopherols but with unsaturated isoprenoid side chains, giving them better cell membrane penetration. They are known for their superior antioxidant, neuroprotective, and cardiovascular benefits compared to tocopherols. Tocotrienols exist in four isomers: alpha, beta, gamma, and delta.
