Abstract

Vitamin E is a tocol due to its chemical structure and is a fat-soluble vitamin. Vitamin E can be isolated from various plant sources. Vitamin E is an antioxidant and, since it is fat-soluble, it has important functions, especially in cell membranes and lipoproteins. Vitamin E was first discovered as a micronutrient by Evans and Bishop in 1922. And after that, its effects began to be investigated. Different compounds of tocols (tocopherol and tocotrienol) show vitamin E activity. The most active form is alpha-tocopherol. Studies show that vitamin E reduces the risk of cardiovascular diseases, many types of cancer, and various chronic diseases and improves these diseases. Studies on the effects of vitamin E on physiological and pathological conditions are still ongoing, and studies are being conducted to investigate its protective and curative effects. The purpose of this article is to talk about some of the effects of vitamin E on the body by making use of the existing literature.
