Vitamin E-asy

Although I have used Vitamin E topically in the past to prevent scarring and aid in the skins healing process, I recently came across some specific information about Vitamin E and why it may work for scars:
1. Vitamin E is an antioxidant that helps prevent free radical damage.
2. Vitamin E protects physical stability and is a defense for your cells.
3. Vitamin E plays a role in immune function, DNA repair, and protects tissue of the skin, eyes, liver and other organs that are sensitive to oxidization.
Vitamin E can be taken orally or topically. Vitamin E is absorbed by the skin and is added to many face creams and lotions, including sunscreen, to prevent wrinkles and premature aging. Will Vitamin E take over the Botox craze? Probably not, but it’s definitely a cheaper, less drastic, alternative. - Community Assistant

I love Vitamin E oil! I never would have believed how quickly heals burns/cuts/scars...but it really makes everything look back to normal so quickly! It's interesting to hear from you other facts about Vitamin E -- thanks
