Fish oil and Vitamin E

Last Updated Feb 2009


Dr. Sears,

What are your thoughts regarding the use of full-spectrum Vitamin E and fish oil?  Is there an added benefit?

Thank you, Jay

 Dear Jay,

A: The other tocopherols (especially gamma and delta) are more powerful anti-oxidants than alpha tocopherol. If you are taking any Vitamin E supplements, always use the full spectrum. However, polyphenols are more powerful anti-oxidants than full spectrum tocopherols.
