Tocotrienols have now
demonstrated superior anti-oxidant function that protects
against exposure from methylmercury. Exposure to
methylmercury is primarily from pollution (coal burning
releases 48 tons a year into the atmosphere) and fatty
fish. Methylmercury is a potent neurotoxin.
The new study shows that
tocotrienols offer significant nerve-cell protection
from methylmercury exposure, a benefit that is far
superior to plain vitamin E. Earlier studies have shown
that tocotrienols are an excellent brain antioxidant as
well as a great cardiovascular support nutrient.
