Tocotrienols belong to the family of vitamin E compounds and alpha-tocotrienol has some vitamin E activity (1). The United States Food and Drug Administration and the United States Pharmacopeia have not assigned vitamin E activity to tocotrienols for their use in commercial products. Eastman NuTriene™ tocotrienols are considered natural-source dietary supplements. 1. Machlin LG ed. In Vitamin E: a Comprehensive Treatise, 1980; Marcel Dekker Inc., New York, NY.
