Vitamin E is not just Vitamin E, rather, it is a group of 8 powerful antioxidants, which are all fat-soluble. These compounds are divided into two main categories: tocopherols and tocotrienols, with each of them playing a unique role in maintaining health and wellness. Often overlooked, these antioxidants work together to protect cells from damage caused by free radicals, support the immune system, and promote overall vitality. [1]
All the eight forms of Vitamin E include:
Out of all these 8 forms, Alpha-tocopherol is most commonly found in food and is present in the highest quantity in the body tissues. You can get Vitamin E from food sources like almonds, peanuts, sunflower seeds, green leafy vegetables like spinach, broccoli, eggs, and so on.
Now, what does Vitamin E do? The answer to this is that Vitamin E benefits your body with its antioxidant properties, and is also great for a better immune system. One of the major roles of Vitamin E is that it fights off the free radicals in our body, decreasing the chances of chronic diseases. Apart from these, Vitamin E uses also include its applications for skin, hair, and much more. [2]

Numerous studies have shown that vitamin E benefits strengthen antioxidant defenses and lower the levels of oxidative stress. [3] |

One of the major vitamin E benefits for men as well as women is its positive impact on heart health. Vitamin E helps our heart health by managing blood pressure, and high levels of triglycerides, or bad cholesterol (LDL). Researchers saw the role of Vitamin E in managing systolic blood pressure. [4] Not only this, Vitamin E, if taken in combination with Omega-3, you can see a considerable drop in triglycerides and bad cholesterol levels. [5] |

Vitamin E benefits by acting on the liver enzymes, ALT (Alanine aminotransferase) and AST (Aspartate aminotransferase), when taken daily. Therefore, Vitamin E helps with lowering liver inflammation and also lowers down the level of blood lipid levels. [6] |

Dysmenorrhea is the term for the intense cramping or discomfort that many women feel during their periods. 200 IU of vitamin E was shown in a study to be more effective than a placebo for reducing menstrual pain.

Vitamin E, when taken orally or used topically, works on your dry scalp, improves blood circulation, and strengthens the hair follicle.
