Research Excerpts

Bioavailability

ExcerptReferenceRelevance
" gamma-Tocopherol is well absorbed and accumulates to a significant degree in some human tissues; it is metabolized, however, largely to 2,7,8-trimethyl-2-(beta-carboxyethyl)-6-hydroxychroman (gamma-CEHC), which is mainly excreted in the urine."( gamma-tocopherol, the major form of vitamin E in the US diet, deserves more attention.
