JARROW FAMIL-E™

contains all eight members of the vitamin E family, known as Tocopherols and Tocotrienols.  These "Tocos" - 4 forms of tocopherols and 4 forms of tocotrienols, typically found concentrated in plant seeds and vegetable oils - are combined with the cardiovascular nutrients Lutein and Pantethine.

• FamilE is specifically rich in Gamma tocopherol and tocotrienols (Tocomin®) for enhanced antioxidant and cardiovascular function. Excess d_Alpha tocopherol depletes Gamma tocopherol.

• FamilE  is fortified with a molecular distillate of palm fruit oil, providing the most potent and comprehensive tocotrienol complex. FamilE  protects cardiovascular function by reducing the oxidation of low-density lipoproteins.

• Squalene is naturally found in the liver and is a building block for hormones. Lutein is a xanthophyll (oxygenated carotenoid) that occurs in nature accompanied by Zeaxanthin, a closely related carotenoid.  An experimental study indicates that lutein protects vascular health by inhibiting monocyte migration  into the arterial cells.

• Pantethine (Pantesin®) is the stable disulfide form of Pantothenic Acid (vitamin B5) and is the physiological coenzyme A precursor in the Krebs cycle.  Pantethine supports lipid metabolism by its ability to raise levels of CoA, a co-factor involved in several metabolic pathways including carbohydrate and lipid metabolism.
