Still feeling sore days after your workouts? In this video, we explore how Vitamin E supports muscle recovery and helps accelerate post workout healing—all backed by real science. Research shows that oxidative stress can damage muscle tissue and slow progress. But Vitamin E, especially in low to moderate doses, plays a powerful role in reducing inflammation, enhancing cellular repair, and minimizing fatigue.
We break down findings from recent meta-analyses and clinical reviews, including studies published in the Revista Brasileira de Medicina do Esporte and research by Myunghee Kim and Jooyoung Kim. Learn how Vitamin E can improve recovery, protect against free radical damage, and even support long-term performance—without interfering with muscle growth.
Whether you’re an athlete, bodybuilder, or just training to feel your best, understanding the role of antioxidants like Vitamin E can be a game-changer.
