This is a different issue than Stephen B. Duff wrote about, it's one of interest to anyone on the list taking Vitamin E. Since Mr. Duff has been involved in the processes of Vitamin E manufacture I am wondering if there is any more concensus these days about the type of Vitamin E to take. You mentioned the plant manufactured dl-alpha tocopherl acetate. When I look at Vitamin E advertisements I find references to Pure D-Alpha Tocopherol Mixed Tocopherols (D-Alpha, Beta, Gamma and Delta Tocopherols) Distinction between TOCOPHEROL and TOCOPHERAL If you have anything enlightening to tell us about selecting a Vitamin E supplement I'm sure many of us would benefit.
