Kirkman的SuperNu-Thera产品也含有维生素E。但一部分特别版本的这一类产品，如液体的或低敏产品，由于配方的原因，维生素E水平补减少。服用这些产品的人士从饮食中又未能获得足够维生素E，就需要额外补充维生素E。
维生素E与身体健康
大家已经知道，维生素E是必需的抗氧化剂营养。此一营养受到高度重视，是因为科学数据建议，服食维生素E有助于中和自由基。
身体代谢过程及环境原因都会产生自由基。抗氧化剂起阻挡作用。维持身体抗氧化剂和自由基的平衡很重要。当饮食、生活方式、环境或其它副面影响而产生大量自由基，抗氧化剂的保护作用被消耗掉，自由基就会伤害身体。
抗氧化剂营养保护人体免受过多自由基的伤害。这些营养有维生素C，E，β-胡萝卜素和包括硒在内的几种矿物质。它们一起发挥作用。
维生素E亦提高免疫反应，并在过敏反应中起作用。
维生素E怎样起抗氧化剂功能
维生素E存在于脂肪中，是脂溶性的，主要存在于细胞膜的脂肪中和低密度脂蛋白循环中。自由基是新陈代谢过程的副产品，或源于环境污染，可用维生素E中和之。不受抑制的自由基攻击细胞组织会有如下后果：
* 细胞死亡或细胞反应有变化
* 酶或其它蛋白不活跃
维生素E缺乏有什么症状？
当然最重要的是保护细胞免受伤害。维生素E缺乏症有神经受损，肌肉无力，协调性差，红细胞破裂，及无意识的眼部动作。

Kirkman's Super Nu-Thera® products also contain vitamin E. Some of the
specialty versions of these products, such as the liquid or hypoallergenic
items, have reduced vitamin E levels due to the formulation requirements.
Additional supplementation may be indicated for individuals using these
products and not getting the balance of their vitamin E requirements from their
diet.
Vitamin E's role in good health
Vitamin E is an essential antioxidant nutrient that is receiving considerable
public attention. Interest in the nutrient is high because new scientific data
suggests that optimal intake of vitamin E can aid in the neutralization of free
radicals.
Free radicals originate in bodily processes and also result from environmental
exposures. They are held in check by antioxidants. It is important to maintain
a healthy balance of antioxidants and free radicals. When free radicals abound
because of diet, lifestyle, environment or other negative influences,
antioxidant availability is overwhelmed and free radical damage may occur.
Antioxidant nutrients play a significant role in the body's defense against
excess levels of free radicals. These nutrients include vitamins C, E,
beta-carotene and several minerals, such as selenium. These antioxidants all
work together.
Vitamin E is also important in supporting immune response and may play a
beneficial role in allergic response.
How does vitamin E function as an antioxidant?
Vitamin E, which is fat soluble, is present in lipids, most significantly in
the lipids of cell membranes and in circulating low density lipoproteins. As
free radicals are produced as byproducts of metabolic processes or originate
from environmental pollutants, available vitamin E neutralizes them. If
unchecked by an antioxidant, the free radicals attack cell constituents, which
can result in:
• Cell death or alteration of the cell's respons
• Inactivation of enzymes or other proteins
What are symptoms of vitamin E deficiency?
Protection against damage to cells of course is important. Symptoms of vitamin
E deficiency in humans can include nerve damage, muscle weakness, poor
coordination, breaking of red blood cells and involuntary eye movement.
Casein, gluten, soy, wheat, artificial colorings, artificial flavorings, gelatin, fish, peanuts, tree nuts or yeast.
