Importance of Vitamin E
Vitamin E is essential for protecting fat molecules in cell membranes and the blood from damage by free radicals. It has potent antioxidant properties that stabilize vitamin A, various hormones, and enzymes. Vitamin E plays a crucial role in protecting cell membranes and is believed to have a preventive effect on degenerative diseases such as cardiovascular disease and cancer. In animals, it is involved in reproduction and has an immunomodulatory effect. Additionally, meat and fish from vitamin E-supplemented animals are protected against rancid deterioration.
