question re Vit E for Doc

[Guest guest]

Hey Doc,

 

So I noticed from your price list you are selling Vitamin E. Says "Non GMO".

 

I was wondering if you have any data about buying Vitamin E from regular supermarkets or Costco, and if there are Vitamin E being sold out there that is not that good quality?

 

I ask because I was buying from Standard Vitamins for a while, but then started getting from Costco. But the ones from Costco taste different (I chew them) and something seems off...

 

Are there Vitamin E brands that are GMO?

 

Any data you want to give me, I want it. Since we are so high up elevation, Vitamin E is something my family and I take a lot of!

 

Thanks! Hi to the family!

Love, Kendra

Hey Kendra,

Good to hear from you.

Most emphatically you want to stay away from the Costco / Sam's Club

versions of Vitamin E = synthetic Vitamin E = virtually useless.

Chemical Difference:

Natural Vitamin E has a single molecule configuration which occurs in

nature and is called: d-alpha tocopherol, d-alpha tocopheryl &

rrr-alpha tocopherol.

Synthetic Vitamin E is a mixture of 8 molecular configurations, 7 of

which are man made. These variations are called: dl-alpha tocopherol,

dl-alpha tocopheryl & all-rac alpha tocopherol in their 7 different

forms.

I know this sounds very technical, but believe me, our bodies know the

difference, and the synthetic are of no use whatsoever = may look like

a deal, but when you pay for nothing, wellllllllllll you're paying for

.. . . nothing.

;o)))

Hugs to you Cheri and the whole family.

Doc
