To summarize the first article in this series, we continue to be a world of haves and have-nots but in today’s version even the haves are suffering and they are suffering from having too much. This too much is too much food but not enough nutrition. The haves can eat all the time but they are choosing to eat the wrong foods and or the empty foods. Empty foods meaning that they are eating but there is no nutritional value in the food that they are choosing to eat, this is why we are giving you this information on where to find the whole food sources for the majority of your vitamin and mineral needs.
In this supplement we are covering the systems supported, the benefits to be found and the whole food sources for vitamin E.
Systems support and Benefits:
Vitamin E supports blood, cardiovascular, endocrine (hormone producing glands), immune, integumentary (skin), nervous, and respiratory systems. E supports a healthy immune system and proper nerve and muscle function, supports healthy circulation and tissue regeneration, promotes healthy blood clotting, and helps keep skin and hair healthy.
Food sources:
Almonds, collard greens, mustard greens, olives, papaya, spinach, sunflower seeds, Swiss chard, turnip greens, wheat germ, wheat germ oil or bran.
Remember, vitamin D was the vitamin covered in the introductory blog of Overfed and Undernourished posted on April 6.
