UNITAS VITAMIN-E 400MG

Uses of UNITAS VITAMIN-E 400MG

UNITAS VITAMIN-E 400MG is primarily used as a dietary supplement to address Vitamin E deficiency and leverage its powerful antioxidant properties for various health benefits.

• Antioxidant Support

  As a potent antioxidant, Vitamin E helps protect the body's cells from damage caused by free radicals, which are byproducts of normal metabolism and environmental exposure. This protection is crucial for maintaining cellular health and reducing oxidative stress throughout the body.

• Skin and Hair Health

  Vitamin E is widely recognized for its benefits to skin and hair. It helps maintain skin moisture, reduces the appearance of fine lines, and supports the healing process. For hair, it can improve scalp circulation and protect hair follicles from environmental damage, promoting healthier growth.

• Immune System Boost

  Adequate Vitamin E levels are essential for a robust immune system. It helps protect immune cells from oxidative damage, allowing them to function optimally in fighting off infections and illnesses, thereby enhancing the body's natural defense mechanisms.

Side Effects of UNITAS VITAMIN-E 400MG

While UNITAS VITAMIN-E 400MG is generally well-tolerated, some individuals may experience mild side effects, especially with higher doses. It's important to consult your doctor if any of these persist or worsen.

Rare but more serious side effects can occur, particularly with very high doses or in sensitive individuals. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience any of these:

If you experience any unusual or severe side effects, discontinue use and consult your doctor immediately. Always adhere to the recommended dosage.

How to use UNITAS VITAMIN-E 400MG

How UNITAS VITAMIN-E 400MG works

Vitamin E, primarily alpha-tocopherol in UNITAS VITAMIN-E 400MG, functions as a potent lipid-soluble antioxidant. Its primary mechanism involves scavenging free radicals, particularly lipid peroxyl radicals, thereby preventing the chain reaction of lipid peroxidation in cell membranes. By donating a hydrogen atom to free radicals, Vitamin E neutralizes them and protects polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) within cell membranes from oxidative damage. This action is critical for maintaining the integrity and fluidity of cell membranes throughout the body, including those of red blood cells, nerve cells, and immune cells. Beyond its antioxidant role, Vitamin E also influences various cellular processes. It can modulate gene expression, regulate enzyme activity, and play a role in cell signaling. It contributes to immune function by protecting immune cells from oxidative stress, enhancing their ability to respond to pathogens. Additionally, Vitamin E has anti-inflammatory properties and can influence platelet aggregation, contributing to cardiovascular health. Its multifaceted actions make it indispensable for cellular protection and overall physiological balance.

Precautions

• Inform your doctor if you are allergic to Vitamin E or any other ingredients.
• Consult your doctor if you have a bleeding disorder or are taking anticoagulant medications (blood thinners).
• Discuss with your healthcare provider if you have any pre-existing medical conditions, such as diabetes or liver disease.
• Avoid exceeding the recommended dosage, as very high doses of Vitamin E can be harmful.
• Inform your doctor about all other medications, supplements, and herbal products you are currently taking.
• Discontinue use and consult a doctor if you experience any adverse reactions.
