Vitamin E and Selenium - Can They prevent Prostate Cancer?

A study by the National Cancer fabricate (Nci) was recently halted when it failed to show a allowance in prostate cancer with Vitamin E and Selenium supplementation. Well, while it is true they halted their study, what the Nci didn't announce to the press was that they used a artificial form of vitamin E and probably not enough selenium to make a difference! artificial antioxidants have already been shown to whether not be useful in preventing cancer or possibly even harmful, as with an earlier study that showed a higher risk of lung cancer with artificial beta carotene use.

Synthetic Vitamin E Not the Same as Natural Vitamin E

Vitamine

We have to remember that artificial vitamins are not the same as the natural kinds, and this includes vitamin E. It appears that especially with artificial antioxidants and artificial fat soluble vitamins (A, D & E), damage can no ifs ands or buts occur in your body. For example, it is widely known that high doses of vitamins A and D can be toxic, but did you know that most studies showing this toxicity were with the artificial versions? They also often used vitamin A or vitamin D in isolation, and these nutrients often occur together in nature and seem to work together. If you take vitamin A with vitamin D, as in naturally occurring cod liver oil, you can take more without any toxicity.

Natural Vitamin E Boosts Immune Function

The artificial version of vitamin E has a "dl-" in the name, as in dl-alpha tocopherol acetate that they used in this study, so make sure and stay away from that. Natural Vitamin E, on the other hand, has been shown in many studies to boost immune function and that of procedure helps protect you from cancer. Selenium has also been shown in many studies to help your immune ideas and also your detoxification system, helping your body get rid of chemicals that can cause cancer. If they did this study over again, but used a vital whole of selenium along with enough natural vitamin E, I have a feeling they would get very separate results.

This study no ifs ands or buts only proves once again that anything with ties to the pharmaceutical industry can no ifs ands or buts come up with a study that proves that vitamins and minerals are ineffective against all sorts of diseases, when the facts show quite the opposite to be the case. Always check out studies completely before believing what you read!

Look for Vitamin E with All 8 Components

In the case of vitamin E we advise that you look for a product containing all 8 of the tocopherols and tocotrienols. Most vitamin E products are only the alpha tocopherol, which is no ifs ands or buts only one part of natural vitamin E. Both gamma tocopherol and tocotrienols have been shown to have very foremost functions and if you supplement with only the alpha tocopherol, you will be missing out.
