Jarrow Formulas, Los Angeles, CA, has unveiled its Gamma E 300™ natural vitamin E. Gamma E 300™ contains gamma tocopherol, one of the eight members of the vitamin E family found concentrated in plant seeds and vegetable oils. Research has shown that gamma-tocopherol is metabolized more efficiently by the body than alpha-tocopherol, according to the company. It also said that when both forms of vitamin E are taken together, the water-soluble metabolite of gamma-tocopherol appears more quickly in the blood and is selectively taken up by cells and removed from plasma more rapidly than alpha-tocopherol.
In other news, the company has entered a licensing agreement, which will furnish the proprietary vitamin K2 supplement Natto K2™ in a new product, MK-7, which is a special form of Vitamin K2. Natto K2 is a proprietary extract of natto that provides the highly bioavailable form of vitamin K2 as menaquinone-7 (MK-7).
