This Synthetic Vitamin is Linked to Causing Cancer, High Blood Pressure, Cardiac Risk & Osteoporosis

This Synthetic Vitamin is Linked to Causing Cancer, High Blood Pressure, Cardiac Risk & Osteoporosis

This EVERYDAY use vitamin might be making you sick and even causing your body to develop heart disease, decreased bone mass, elevated cholesterol levels as well as even cancer of the breast, lung, colon, and prostate.

Sadly this vitamin is still being manufactured. Alpha-tocopherol. (A-tocopherol) is the synthetic version of Vitamin E. It’s everywhere! Please look in all your supplements and nutrient-dense powders, drinks, and foods.

A healthier alternative to Vitamin E is tocotrienol.

My fave alternatives are:
Delta-Fraction Tocotrienols 125mg http://bit.ly/2OXjZAh
Annatto Tocotrienol http://bit.ly/2DOPea7

    Interesting. I remember way back in the late ’60’s, my cousin was very much into health (weight lifter; bicyclist; martial arts).

    I was around that time that Vitamin E was being touted as something to take along with Vitamin B et cetera.

    THEN, ‘they discovered’ that there were more complex components to plain old Vitamin E that ‘need’ to be present to ‘complete’ the Vitamin E ‘family’, namely…you guessed it: Alpha–tocopherol.

    To this very moment (before I watched your video here), I was under the impression that Alpha–tocopherol were ‘natural’ components that make up the Vitamin E family. Holy cow!



  2. Kyastuni Kat on November 27, 2022 at 10:17 am

    I wanted to buy the garden of life vitamin code for women but noticed they have this d-Alpha-tocopherol from sunflower oil as one of their ingredient as Vit E. Not sure if this is the same as the one you have mentioned in the video? I went research a bit the differences between "d-Alpha-tocopherol" and "DL-alpha-tocopherol", assuming that "d-Alpha-tocopherol" should be safe to consume than "DL" right?



  3. Youcamp on November 27, 2022 at 10:18 am

    Something she didn’t mention is how to tell the difference between the synthetic form of alpha tocopherol and the natural form. The natural form is D-Alpha Tocopherol. The synthetic form is DL-Alpha Tocopherol acetate.



  4. Jude Paolo Marpa on November 27, 2022 at 10:18 am

    TOCOTRIENOLS FORM OF VIT E is bio or natural
    Because tocotrienols is 50x more potent than ALPHA TOCOPHEROLS
    PLS PEOPLE DOCTORS NOW A DAYS WILL GIVE YOU SYNTHETIC VIT JUST FOR MARKET AND MONEY SAKE

    Don’t be stupid
    You’re on a safe side if you know truths behind synthetic supplements
    Better to stay on BIO SIDE



  5. lisasophia775 on November 27, 2022 at 10:19 am

    The ingredient on product for this supplement selling on amazon include mixed tocophenols from glycine max (soybean) is this ingredient harmful unless going through fermentation? Is it safe? Now brand



  6. Carlos Carion on November 27, 2022 at 10:20 am

    Ultimately she is presenting the correct information and if there’s something that’s confusing you all you have to do is research it but I think you know we’re pretty lucky that she’s presenting the information at all nitpicking certainly not gonna help anybody’s health issue it’s just gonna be nitpicking do the research just like she does

    Oh great even the vitamins are trying to kill me.



  9. sweet beep to the point on November 27, 2022 at 10:25 am

    What is the ingredient says : "mixed tocopherols"?



  10. Iam WhoIam on November 27, 2022 at 10:25 am

    Don’t take that vitamin E, take the vitamin E that I sell. Click the link below.

    What’s your opinion about – Zipvit A-Z Multi Vitamins and Minerals Tablets – One a Day Multivitamin For Men & Women



  12. Afhskwifbwkl on November 27, 2022 at 10:27 am

    What about dl-alpha tocopheryl acetate?



  13. M E on November 27, 2022 at 10:28 am

    👍Thank you so much for this video 💖. Wow it is so important to learn about synthetic vitamin E and others. I have listened to a radio show back in 2019 on synthetic vitamin D3 or the prescribed one. They said it causes hardening of arteries among other things. I am turning to homeopathy since traditional medicine is letting us down. All they give me are dangerous prescription drugs. It is hard to even follow a good & balanced nutrition when foods are also being saturated with gmos,synthetic
    ingredients and emulsifiers. It is hard to keep up with so much. FDA approves products with ingredients banned in other countries due to carcinogenous. Pharmaceuticals in USA are getting many of their ingredients from foreign countries and FDA recalls many times are due to that. Those countries have cheaper products to sell because there aren’t quality control laws to stop them. I have to look up the ingredients before buying anything these days because my body is reacting to it. I had pain inside the breast and later realized a body lotion caused it . Maybe it had vitamin E among other weird ingredients ..Most pharmacy or popular body lotions have those questionable ingredients . We must be more aware of what is going on. So I try to stick to the products that are safe for me since I am very sensitive..So very few in the market are free from those bad ingredients. Most people won’t bother to look them up..There are apps now that will tell you if products are unsafe. We must take health seriously and not for granted.
    🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼



  14. Natural Health Resources on November 27, 2022 at 10:35 am

    Thanks for taking time to watch this video about the synthetic version of vitamin E in the form of DL-alpha tocopherol. This is the version analyzed in the studies I reference in the video.
    Research links are provided in the description.
    There are 7 different forms of tocopherols. The toxic version is a petrochemically derived synthetic form.

    If your labels say “alpha tocopherol” or “mixed tocopherols” – I recommend digging further with that brand’s website and customer service to ID specifically which of the 7 version(s) are in your product.

    DL-alpha-tocopherol IS the synthetic hormone of focus in this video and it may be labeled with different endings. But all are either synthesized or extracted from either GMO soy,
    Corn, wheat, rice and cotton.

    My intention was not to scare you or create fear or panic. But to equip you with knowledge. So YOU can decide if you want to make a healthier choice. And if you do I share with you a totally plant based – GMO free alternative.

    My motto is always food first for nutrient absorption.

    I will be creating a follow up – part 2 if you will comparing the 7 tocopherols to tocotrienol and further emphasizing the dancer of the synthetic version of vitamin E.

    Appreciate you time and comments! 💖



  15. Jose Lopez on November 27, 2022 at 10:36 am

    Is alpha tocopheryl acetate the same thing?



  16. Kacey Ann Reynolds on November 27, 2022 at 10:36 am

    I take no supplements for that reason….. I only eat a whole foods diet….. What is your opinion of vitamin K2?? Pumpkin seed oil???



  17. Jessica Ford on November 27, 2022 at 10:37 am

    OMG , So what is your website?



  18. Jemi Castacion on November 27, 2022 at 10:38 am

    I WOULD HAVE BELIEVED YOU IF YOU DID NOT PLACED POSSIBLE SPONSORED PRODUCTS. 😡



  19. SleeplessinOC on November 27, 2022 at 10:39 am

    Doctor , please talk about what adverse things could happen if one takes vitamin K2 WITHOUT Vitamin D. Is it potentially dangerous ? Neutral ?



  20. Nickolson Hardware on November 27, 2022 at 10:39 am

    Hi Doc. How do we know if vitamins are Synthetic?

    Fu*k ur long horsy face I almost threw my vitamins away until I read the comments



  23. Yogita Ram on November 27, 2022 at 10:41 am

    Thank you so much for this video , and I had removed all this toxins I bought and used to take



  24. Patricia Franklin on November 27, 2022 at 10:41 am

    Is dl-alpha-tocopheryl acetate the same thing? I found it in “one a day brand natural fruit bites multivitamin women’s 50+”



  25. Rebekka D. on November 27, 2022 at 10:41 am

    My vitamin e is from vital nutrients and I would never take another. It contains tocopherols (not synthetic) and tocotrienols. Vital Nutrients (I am in no way affiliated) is my go to when I want to make sure I am getting the best. It is mostly what my naturopath uses. A lot of companies try to make quick money off supplements and you must always do your homework.



  26. Elizabeth Johnson on November 27, 2022 at 10:44 am

    Thank you and i love you for this even though I don’t know you!



  27. MarAma49 Cabrera on November 27, 2022 at 10:45 am

    My best learning is always from people comments. Because, they are sincere and not trying to sell anything. Thank you All! Blessings 💫



  28. Monica on November 27, 2022 at 10:47 am

    I take a hair vitamin with vitamin E as d-alpha tocopheryl succinate (47mg) once a day, is that ok and safe?



  29. denise layer on November 27, 2022 at 10:47 am

    Is haudronlic acid ok to take if you cannot take estrogen ?



  30. datsuntoyy on November 27, 2022 at 10:49 am

    Doubt is anywhere close to as bad as hydrogenated oils. That stuff is everywhere.



  31. TheRexsaid on November 27, 2022 at 10:49 am

    Once you research there’s a lot of info in regards to this, it’s very disconcerting to find out I been taking a supplement that contains this for over 4 years what a irresponsible way of damaging lives by this supplement companies!



  32. Freddie Piras on November 27, 2022 at 10:51 am

    Tocotrienol is the way to go



  33. M E on November 27, 2022 at 10:53 am

    Do you have any reviews on milk vitamin d and calcium added? I am allergic to milk and began using oat milk but developed calcifications. Could it be that the added synthetic calcium be causing it? I need to ID a vegetable milk that has no added calcium. Can you help me with that?



  34. Pippy chicken on November 27, 2022 at 10:53 am

    You mentioned soy orange soy foods healthy? I drink soy milk tofu tempeh soy noodles which is basically soy flour that’s been made into noodle-like shapes but all the soy foods are I eat are organic non-GMO, I hear mixed messages when it comes to soil one side says they’re bad the other side says they’re good, I eat soy not necessarily because I believe that they’re good but I don’t have any issues with soy, or should I be worried? Is it safer to get vitamin E from foods? I think nuts and seeds and wheat germ have vitamin E is that safer?



  35. Linda W on November 27, 2022 at 10:55 am

    Wow, thanks for the information. My Costco multi has the right E.



  36. Cherryl Gibson on November 27, 2022 at 10:56 am

    Why do Americans say lidderly (litterly), instead of literally? I’m not finding fault. It’s a serious question. I hear American people say this a lot. Is it the American English version of literally…and why do Americans pronounce T as D? I know that it’s off topic but I hear these things so much, so I wanted to ask an American person, but I don’t know any American people and I heard you say lidderly so I’m asking you, or anyone who reads this comment. No offense meant to Americans, or anyone else — my paternal grandmother, whom I adored, was American. 🙂 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

    I’m so glad to have this info, and really appreciate it! It would be great if you also could add a few available (multivitamins) with tocotrienol that aren’t other sites as well. Thank you!



  45. A A on November 27, 2022 at 11:12 am

    What about (d-Alpha tocopheryl succinate)?



  46. *** Chatta *** on November 27, 2022 at 11:14 am

    I don’t understand. There are no links to Vitamin E is tocotrienols. I’m not seeing them. Please advise. Thank You.



  47. Jemi Castacion on November 27, 2022 at 11:14 am

    WHERE ARE YOUR SOURCES? AND WHO WROTE THOSE ARTICLES? YOU? PLEASE DON’T MESS OTHER BRANDS FOR THE SAKE OF YOUR BUSINESS, OKAY?

    Skip all the intro…
    @01:46 Name of the vitamin



  49. Rev. Safiya Oni Brown on November 27, 2022 at 11:15 am

    As someone who grew up Seventh Day Adventist living in a community that grew our own food, juiced, fasted and sourced only the highest quality herbs and supplements as well as working as a manager for a global health food store I would have to say that we always stayed away from any synthetic supplements as much as we could and now as an adult working in the wellness field for over 20 years I still do the same. Just a tip for those just getting started: please do yourself a favor and do not buy plant based milk substitutes in the store. It is easy and healthier to make your own in minutes for a fraction of the cost. And the best part is, your body will be much happier. The less chemicals the better. Another fun tip I learned from working in the Global wellness market is that the manufacturer of most items on our grocery stores do not have to put all of the ingredients on the package and to make it worse there are also secret products that can be added to supplements that are able to make it more difficult to detect less than desirable chemicals or toxins in the container. Just a little something to think about.



  50. Gisell Correa on November 27, 2022 at 11:15 am

    Hello, thank you so much for the info. I got a question. Is the vitamin that you mentioned same as the one I saw in my cereal that says Tocopherols(vitamin E) ONLY. It’s in a called organic cereal that I’m consuming and I got it from Whole Foods. Thank you.
