Let's talk about the most important function of vitamin E, and that is it stabilizes cell

membranes. Now what's interesting about the cell membrane is that it has a double layer of fat,

both saturated and unsaturated fatty acids. So people are always concerned about, oh my

god saturated fat you need to avoid it. Well the cell membrane is made out of saturated fat

and cholesterol. And you have all sorts of things happening at the cellular membrane. You have

the protection of the inside of the cell. You have all these mini little organs, they're called

organelles. You have a little energy factory in there called the mitochondria. You have the

lysosome, which is the garbage disposal. You have the DNA in the nucleus. You have the protein

factories. You have little factories that make things out of lipids. So there's a lot going on

and the cell membrane is there to protect it. And then you have billions of little pumps. One

would be the sodium potassium pump. And this pump generates a lot of energy to activate the muscles

and the nerves. And its primary job is to keep sodium out of the cell and potassium in to create

this battery. And then electrical charge is inside the cell and that can actually be used by the

muscles and the nerves to allow them to function. So vitamin E helps prevent the oxidation of this

fat layer right here as well as the fat structures inside the cell. It's a significant antioxidant

and it does work with selenium as well. It prevents retinopathy, which is a disease of your retina,

which is the nerve and so the eye. It's basically an extension of the brain sticking out in the eye.

And the reason why vitamin E prevents this condition is because vitamin E is all about protecting

fat-civil structures. And anything related to nerve has a fat layer, it's called myelin chief,

because vitamin E is a fat-civil vitamin. It also supports glutathione, which is the most

powerful antioxidant in your body and it mainly works in your liver. It also prevents nerve damage

why because of the myelin chief, which is all fat. Now, most of the vitamin E is stored in the
