Today we are talking all things Vitamin E – or tocotrienols to be exact – and the Amazonia super plant Annatto to be even more specific.

Our feautured guest today is considered the world’s foremost expert on Vitamin E. Dr Barrie Tan is credited with discovering tocotrienol in three major natural sources: Palm, Rice and Annatto. A scientist first and foremost, Dr Tan earned his Ph.D. in Chemistry/Biochemistry from the University of Otago, New Zealand and spent several years as a professor at the University of Massachusetts. 

On this episode we discuss –

How Barrie’s trip to the Amazon changed his professional life forever (and has massively contributed to human health)

The difference between tocopherol and tocotrienol

How tocotrienols are far more effecient than tocopherols

What makes annatto tocotrienol superior

How tocotrienols reduce oxidative stress in the body

And so much more …
