5. Helps With Arthritis
There are several forms of arthritis, and one of the most common is osteoarthritis, a slow-progressing and degenerative joint disease. Other forms of arthritis are inflammatory. Arthritis remains active in the body, doing damage to joints silently. Evidence shows that vitamin E can have anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving abilities to relieve symptoms of arthritis. The antioxidant properties of vitamin E are said to reduce free radicals and inflammation.
Vitamin E supplements could reduce joint pain while resting or moving and may reduce structural deformation of joints.
