摘要：
Vitamin E, the most effective natural free radical scavenger identified to date, is taking America by storm - and apparently for good reason. Reports of benefits ranging from improved immunity to prevention of cancer and cardiovascular disease are appearing regularly. In this article, the authors review the scientific literature to help you evaluate whether patients might benefit from supplemental vitamin E.
