E-Complex

Hope For Health’s Vitamin E-Complex is the highest quality Vitamin E supplement available and is 100% natural! Our E-Complex contains the entire family of compounds called tocopherols, which are composed of: d-alpha, d-gamma, d-delta, and d-beta-tocopherol.

A Powerful Antioxidant
Vitamin E is a major antioxidant that protects the body’s cells from free radicals. As we age, the damage done by free radicals accumulates in our bodies causing cell damage. As an antioxidant, Vitamin E neutralizes the damaging effects of the free radicals and limits their production.

Heart Disease
Numerous studies have looked at the role and benefits of E-Complex supplements in heart disease. Some studies, such as the Nurse Study in 1993 involving 90,000 nurses, associated E-Complex supplementation to an astonishing 30 - 40% lower rate of coronary heart disease! One of the most compelling studies of the benefits of Vitamin E is the Women’s Health Study, in which 40,000 healthy women, 45 and older, took 600 IU of Vitamin E supplements or a placebo every other day for 10 years. Women taking the supplements had 24% fewer deaths from heart disease. Vitamin E ’s protective effect appeared even stronger in women 65 and older. Those taking the vitamin experienced a 26% reduction in cardiovascular events and a 49% reduction in cardiovascular deaths!

Beautiful Skin
Vitamin E taken orally plays a role in the anti-aging of skin. It helps skin look younger by reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Also, free radicals are believed to be a part of the cause of skin aging and therefore the antioxidant activity of Vitamin E is extremely valuable for slowing down the aging process.

Menopause
E-Complex has proven extremely effective in reducing vaginal dryness and combating hot flashes. Because of this, E-Complex is being taken by many women as a safe alternative to Hormone Replacement Therapy (side effects of HRT include: an increased risk of multiple types of cancer, increased risk of blood clots, increased risk of gallbladder disease, increased risk of heart attack or stroke, and more). Why risk it? Try E-Complex, the safe alternative.

PMS
Studies show that Vitamin E is useful in treating premenstrual syndrome and fibrocystic breasts. Alzheimer’s Disease A major study published in the New England Journal of Medicine indicated 1,200 IU - 2,000 IU
of E-Complex per day is safe and slowed the progression of Alzheimer’s Disease.

Cancer Prevention and Treatment
• E-Complex helps block the formation of nitrosamines, which are carcinogens (cancer-causing agents) formed in the stomach when you eat foods that contain nitrites.
• E-Complex vitamins may also protect you against the development of cancers by enhancing immune function.
• Some evidence links higher intake of Vitamin E with a decreased incidence of prostate cancer and breast cancer.
• The Iowa Women’s Health Study provides evidence that an increased dietary intake of Vitamin E may decrease the risk of colon cancer, especially in women under 65.

IMPORTANT
NOTE: While 400 IU or more of supplemental Vitamin E a day has been shown to reduce the risk of heart attacks in healthy people, those with pre-existing coronary artery disease often take 800 to 1600 IU a day based on the pioneering work of the Shute brothers in the mid 1940s, and other studies that have continued to  prove the benefits of high doses of Vitamin E.

DRUG INTERACTIONS: If you are taking anti-clotting medication, consult with your doctor before taking Vitamin E.

• A normal appetite and fewer cravings.
• Optimal liver functioning and blood cell formation.
• The breakdown of fats and proteins, aiding normal functioning of the nervous system.
• Healthy muscle tone in the stomach and intestinal tract, which promotes healthy digestive
function.


Want to lose weight and stay fit?
B-Complex vitamins are some of the most important vitamins involved in weight regulation, fat utilization, energy production, and proper thyroid function. If you are trying to lose weight, supplementing with B-Complex vitamins may just be that extra push your body needs!

vision and healthy skin.
• Vitamin B3 (Niacinamide) - Maintains the health of the skin, nervous system, and digestive
system. Essential for healthy thyroid function and thyroid hormone regulation.
• Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic Acid) - Boosts energy levels, normalizes hormone levels, helps the body

• Some of the studies looking at large groups of people have also shown a possible link between intake of vitamin B6 and lower risks of colo-rectal and breast cancers in women.
