"New Study, Proof That Vitamin E Kills"?Written by DocStuey
Continued from page 1
Clearly, only way to supplement with any "Vitamin E" is with a properly balanced complete E-Complex pharmaceutical grade supplement... OR NONE AT ALL! You can get a fair amount of naturally balanced complete Vitamin E Complex from a healthy nutrition plan, once you learn how. You don’t need to eat eight pounds of veggies including one of every color, two pounds of mixed nuts and grains, three of fruit, etc… each and every day as seen on Infomercials, or ads for supplements, to remain healthy and out of harms way… let’s be realistic! With today’s helter skelter North American Lifestyles, it is prudent to take well balanced vitamin and mineral supplements. Before doing so, it is imperative that you develop an understanding of what to look for. When it comes to Vitamin E, better safe than sorry! We have found, based on what we know about content of E-Complex molecules found naturally occurring in a balanced healthy diet, there should be at a minimum, two to three times as much gamma-tocopherol as there is alpha-tocopherol, measured in mg. (milligrams) not IU (International Units, common unit of measurement for certain vitamins). To convert IU’s of alpha-tocopherol to mg., simply multiply IU measurement by a factor of (0.66), alpha-tocopherol is only member of E-Complex family vitamins measured in IU’s. As far as tocotrienols, you’ll want at least one tenth as much in mg.’s, as combined total of tocopherols. " Only Caution to balanced full spectrum Vitamin E Suplementation: Vitamin E has potentially harmful interaction with anticoagulant medications, due to Vitamin E having anti-platelet properties and potential to inhibit vital clot formation (Vitamin E complex may "thin" blood.). Consult with a physician if you are using any anticoagulants or if you have clotting problems. Many surgeons recommend that use of Vitamin E supplements be discontinued for up to two weeks prior to and following surgery." Doc Stuey Publish This Post  Copyright (H.Brett) 2004

The Epidemic growth in man made diseases, Heart Disease, Diabetes, Cancer, cries for the need to make a difference!

to consumers. This has led to an astonishing number of ads on television and radio, as consumers see ads showing one happy person after another. The ads suggest that happiness shown is a result of use of product, and a voiceover quickly mumbles through known, and sometimes lengthy, list of side effects. Patients are encouraged to speak with their doctor, and they have been doing so in record numbers. The problem, as Bristol Myers know realizes, is that consumers are well aware that withdrawn Bextra and Vioxx were advertised as being safe. This has naturally led to a general suspicion of all advertised drugs, and Bristol Myers correctly sees that they could be victims of a drug-company backlash, even if they didn’t manufacture any of withdrawn products.
This will probably save Bristol Myers a lot of money in short term, as their advertising would have largely gone to waste. The Food and Drug Administration is taking steps to make sure that drugs that reach U.S. market are safe, and in time, public will again become more trusting of pharmaceutical advertising. In meantime, TV viewers will be spared from having to watch sometimes-cryptic drug ads, which often prompt questions of “What does this drug do?”
