Bulk CAS 490-23-3 Tocotrienols Powder
What is Tocotrienols?
Tocotrienol is a functional ingredient found in palm oil and rice bran oil. It is part of the vitamin E complex. In nature, vitamin E has about eight different parts. Half are tocopherols, and half are so-called tocotrienols. People may find it strange to hear the words tocopherols and tocotrienols. Do they have anything to do with having children? In fact, they are both main members of vitamin E. They can use the unsaturated double bonds in their chemical structure to combine with oxygen free radicals, the "culprit" of human aging, to achieve antioxidant and anti-aging effects. Tocopherol was discovered, studied and used earlier, but many subsequent studies have found that the antioxidant capacity of tocotrienols is superior to tocopherol, and it is indeed worthy of the name of an antioxidant "magic weapon".
