Abstract
Vitamin E is a lipid-soluble substance that is the main component of the body’s defense system against free radicals. It performs a range of important functions in the body as a result of its antioxidant action. Cancer, aging, and other diseases and ailments have all been related to oxidation. It has been shown that vitamin E protects against rheumatoid arthritis and cataracts. Additionally, vitamin E can help to prevent the production of prostaglandins like thromboxane, which encourage platelet clustering and hyper aggregation, which can lead to atherosclerosis. The present literature review examines the roles and functions of vitamin E in human health, different disorders, and the consequences of vitamin E deficiency. The tocopherol family of vitamers is the focus of the review’s main points. In this review article, the part and actions of vitamin E are talked about, as well as the things that affect how well vitamin E treatment works. When given at the right time and for the right amount of time, Vitamin E should help people with oxidative stress caused by free radicals.
