Perhaps you've never heard of tocotrienols. A powerful set of antioxidants, they play an important part in promoting cardiovascular health. They may be effective as a means of reversing aging, maintaining health cholesterol levels, and regulating blood pressure.

Unfortunately tocotrienols aren't particularly abundant in foods. They show up mostly in oils such as Palm oil, macadamia and hazelnuts, and some grains such as oats.

They can help maintain heart health in a number of way. They've been shown to promote lower cholesterol production in the liver, helping to maintain healthy levels throughout the body. They work to keep your arteries clear in two ways. First, tocotrienols discourage blood clumping, and secondly they have been shown to help reduce arterial blockage. As a bonus, since it's a powerful antioxidant, it helps to relieve your heart of oxidative stress.

To realize the skin benefits you can take tocotrienols internally and externally. Taken internally at 40 mg/day is enough to help protect your skin from UV damage. When applied externally tocotrienols easily penetrate deep into your skin to help prevent oxidative damage. Skin that has had tocotrienols applied has been shown to have as much as 30 times the Vitamin E as normal skin.

Combining tocotrienols with the well documented positive health properties of astaxanthin is a sure bet for health success. Check out our AstaTrienol which has already been formulated to provide you with sufficient quantities of both of these powerful antioxidants.
