Health food industry PR.  At least it's not disguised.

The sources I'm familiar with (e.g., Dr. Thomas Chase of NIH) say
that vitamin E does not cross the blood brain barrier.  If the
quantity of synthetic vitamin E that crosses is zero, then 5 times
zero is still zero.

It would be interesting to have the references to the studies that
Veris drew its conclusions from.
