Benefits of Tocotrienols for the various industries

 

 

Nutraceutical Industry

Functional foods can promote health and reduce the risk of illness. According to WHO marketing report, heart diseases, cancers and degenerated diseases are diet-related and thus nutritional supplements can in some way delay the progress of such diseases. Functional foods are also believed to have medical and physiological benefits on human. Studies have also shown that tocotrienols have neuroprotective, anti-cancer and anti-cholesterol properties that are often not exhibited in tocopherols. Therefore, as ingredients for functional foods, tocotrienols are considered to be functionally more superior as compared to tocopherols.

 

Cosmeceutical Industry

Recent studies have found that anti-oxidative, healing and reparative properties make it an important active ingredient in producing a variety of skin care products, particularly for sunscreen, anti-aging and anti-cancer formulations. Tocotrienols have therefore been recognized to be a powerful antioxidant to prevent skin aging and cancers. In recognition of this fact, tocotrienols are used as an essential ingredient for a broad spectrum of cosmetics, skincare products and clinical dermatology.

 

Pharmaceutical Industry

Several lines of evidence indicated antiproliferative and apoptotic activity of vitamin E cancers cells. However, a better therapeutic effect of vitamin E, particularly tocotrienols as a chemoprevention and chemotherapy agent depends on a more profound understanding of the underlying mechanisms, which could provide clues to develop better antitumor biomarkers in evaluating the efficiency of the potential tocotrienols. Tocotrienols are used as antioxidant supplements because they offer great potential for preventing a variety of diseases,  including cancer and heart disease, and on this basis tocotrienols were offered on the market as healthful supplement. Tocotrienols have also been proposed for reducing cholesterol.
