An overlooked health improving vitamin?

There are many products available today which are said to improve the health in one way or the other. Vitamin E supplements are no exception - but for good reasons.

There are several benefits of vitamin e, first and foremost being an important antioxidant which helps the body fight free radicals attacking the body's defense and preventing cell decomposition. Research has shown that vitamin E can help preventing cancer cells from growing. Furthermore, vitamin E can help against blood coagulation and thereby reduce the risk of blood clots in the heart.

Regarding dietary supplements for bodybuilding, vitamin E is often used in connection with reestablishing a normal HPTA function (Hypotalamus/Testicular axis), which is a necessity if exogenous hormones have been used.
