What are tocotrienols?
Vitamin E, long considered "a vitamin looking for a disease," plays an essential role in maintaining the structure and function of the human nervous system as well as being a powerful antioxidant that prevents free radical damage and enhances the immune system. When Vitamin E was originally being isolated, it was proposed to call the components tocopherols. Thus, a basic class of the initial four compounds were known as alpha, beta, delta and gamma tocopherols. The term "Vitamin E" now refers to a class of fat soluble antioxidants consisting of tocotrienols and tocopherols. 
Lately, as a result of research, tocotrienols have been found to exert powerful antioxidant, anticancer and cholesterol-lowering capabilities. In their antioxidant function, some of the tocotrienols have been found to be 6,000 times more potent than alpha tocopherols, and even alpha and delta tocotrienols are between 40-200 times more potent than alpha tocopherols.
An important antioxidant function of tocotrienols is in helping prevent cellular damage that may lead to cancer or other degenerative disease conditions. Due to the molecular structure of tocotrienols, they are able to easily penetrate tissues containing saturated fatty layers, such as those found in the brain and liver.
The liver, the body's largest internal organ, is the main site of and the regulator of amino acid metabolism. Nutritional Essentials provides 22 essential and non-essential amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins. The importance of receiving a sufficient level of all the amino acids cannot be stressed enough. We must have a constant supply of amino acids to build the proteins that create our body’s tissues and influence the body's weight, shape and tone. Proteins are made and broken down daily. About 60-70 percent of the amino acids available in the body are recycled from old tissue proteins.
Nutritional Essentials are very beneficial for detoxifying the liver. As the liver detoxifies our blood it becomes the most abused organ in our body because of our exposure to toxins in our modern lifestyle. Its vital functions include metabolizing fats (and thus preventing their accumulation in the bloodstream), synthesizing necessary blood proteins, breaking down and eliminating toxic substances, and secreting bile. A healthy liver 
converts nutrients into a usable form for cells in other parts of the body.
In addition, this complex contains a superior form of B Complex vitamins, along with powerful antioxidant vitamins. When combined, their synergistic effects can provide up to 100 times more powerful an antioxidant function than either pycnogenols or grape seed extracts alone.
