Seriously like 87% of the population is not getting enough vitamin E from their diet. If you consider supplementation 60% is not getting enough. So even after supplementation people are not getting enough vitamin E. Why do you need vitamin E? Well, if you don’t get vitamin E, what what ends up happening is a disease that’s acute. So with vitamin E, the disease is you get it’s called himic anemia. So your red blood cells start to just burst because of oxidative stress. Vitamin E is a very potent antioxidant. It’s able to go, it’s fats soluble, so it’s able to go into the membranes of cells and do its antioxidant thing. Most people are not walking around with that severe form. Some people are, but the subclinical deficiency of it is you’re end up you end up having oxidized LDL cholesterol. A lot of people have heard of LDL cholesterol. Oh, that increases my cardiovascular disease risk. Um, but what people don’t understand is the oxidized form of it is really bad. And so a lot of people are walking around with oxidized LDL because they’re not meeting their vitamin E requirement. And what that does is it’s essentially tells your immune system inflammation. Inflammation immune system comes and tries to attack the oxidized LDL and then you have a for a formation of a foam cell. You’re getting the beginnings of aththeroscrosis.
