Tocotrienols with Sesame Lignans

Tocotrienols have shown superior action in maintaining arterial health.127-129 This wonder nutrient is so effective because of its structure of double bonds in the isoprenoid side chain, making it a great scavenger of free radicals.130

Sesame lignans have been added to help block or inhibit the enzyme that breaks down tocotrienols, allowing tissue levels of tocotrienols to build up in the body.131 This translates into much greater antioxidant protection, decreasing destructive free radicals.

Research has shown that tocotrienols display potent neuroprotective properties.132,133
