Vitamin E is our primary defense against the damage done by the accumulation and oxidation of both Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids (PUFA) and excess iron in our tissues, blood, and organs.
This is a result of a lifetime of consumption of industrial junk food! Namely:
Fried foods
Chips, tortillas (even the ones marketed as ‘healthy’ that are fried in seed oil)
Vegetable/Canola/Sunflower/Grapeseed/Safflower/Soybean oil
Any other nut or seed derived oil
Nut butters
Nuts & seeds
Cereal
Grocery store (shelf-stable) breads and wraps
Omega-3 supplements
Mayonnaise
Margarine
and lots more (read ingredient labels!)
The more of these foods that you have consumed, the more you have pushed your body into a Vitamin E deficiency.
