What you see are big red blotches. kinda of like what you got if you ever

played " Indian burn " ? I've seen them on arms, but the whole world doesn't

exactly strip for me, you know? LOL! The crispy hair & nails are another

one. However, being " not right " and being severely malnourished are not

quite the same thing. I've not seen anyone tested regularly for E, either.

Well after I asked the question, I was thinking I had been rather imprecise,

cause it occurred to me the dietician might have been tailoring her comment to

me, a 100cm RNY proximal. Vit E deficiency could be something that is a

more pressing potential issue for distals and greater malabsorptives like BPDS

folk etc. Still, for myself, I personally see no harm in dosing with at least

an additional 400 IUs of E and that's what I had been doing. Little did I

know I was dosing with the WRONG form of E! (I was using the natural but in

oil gelcap, not the dry.) Never one to waste, I'll use the oil E on greasing

up my new bellybutton, where it'll do some good!

Thanks,

Lucille

Lucille - what an excellent question and - what a wonderful answer.

I never thought about being low on E. I've got red blotches on my arms and

feet. My gyno even commented on it at my dr appointment.

So now, how much can we absorb at a time?

The general public can take 800 IU safely for heart health. So, I would

think a proximal who is malabsorbing SOME fats & oils could do it, too. You

can talk to your doc or pharmacist to feel safe.

E = hair, skin, nails, capillary walls. (hence the connection with bleeding

or red blotches) AND for men, all male function, which includes urinary

tract, prostate AND toys.

There's a lil more to it than fad following, which I know was trendy for

awhile. Not saying that's what you're doing, just it was for awhile.

AND my dad was put on 800IU for his dementia. My guess would be to increase

blood flow to the damaged areas of the brain. Although he COULD take oil, he

lives here. Only the best for MY daddy.
