    GlossaryTocotrienols

    form of vitamin E with potent antioxidant properties

    Tocotrienols are a form of vitamin E, similar to the more commonly known tocopherols, but with a slightly different chemical structure that allows them to be more effective in certain biological functions. They are known for their potent antioxidant properties, which help protect cells from damage, and have been studied for their potential benefits in promoting hair growth and overall scalp health.
