1 interaction related to vitamin-e
Omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA) are polyunsaturated and highly susceptible to oxidation, which can blunt their cardiovascular and anti-inflammatory benefits. Vitamin E acts as a lipid-soluble antioxidant that helps protect omega-3 fatty acids from peroxidation both during storage and after absorption, which is why most quality fish oils already include a small amount of mixed tocopherols.
