Tocotrienols are closely related to the tocopherols found in Vitamin E. Like tocopherols, tocotrienols are found in some vegetable oils, wheat germ, barley, saw palmetto, and certain varieties of nuts and grains. Tocotrienols have been shown to protect against brain cell damage and cardiovascular disease, prevent cancer, reduce cholesterol and combat oxidative stress to the skin produced by UV exposure. They can penetrate tissues with saturated fatty layers more efficiently than tocopherols, making tocotrienols, particularly delta tocotrienols, powerful antioxidants.
