To determine whether extreme endurance exercise induces lipid peroxidation, we
studied 14 athletes (5 females: 9 males) during a 50 km ultramarathon (trial 1) and during
a sedentary protocol (trial 2) one month later. ...
Current dietary recommendations have placed increasing emphasis on dietary fat
as an important element to decrease risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Although total

The present study investigated whether vitamin E supplementation reduced
oxidative stress in erythrocytes and improved vitamin E status in patients
undergoing hemodialysis (HD). Plasma and erythrocyte α-tocopherol, pla ...
The primary goal of my studies was to elucidate the mechanisms for the well-recognized interaction between two nutrients, vitamins E and K. The outcomes from my studies assess mechanisms for adverse effects of vitamin E ...
The present study was undertaken to analyze the vitamin E, total lipids, and
cholesterol in regular and fat-reduced milk to assess whether decreases in fat result in
lower vitamin E contents. Milk samples of varying fa ...
Patients with end-stage renal disease undergoing hemodialysis have a high
incidence of oxidative stress-related diseases. This study evaluated oxidative stress
and inflammatory markers in patients undergoing hemodialys ...
The relative enrichment of skin sebaceous gland lipids with deuterium-labeled
α-tocopherol was compared with plasma enrichment to evaluate the
delivery of vitamin E to skin. For the first week of this study, each subje ...
