Knowing this, you really know about natural vitamin E.

Do you know the difference between natural vitamin E and synthetic products? Do you know that natural vitamin E can also be used as a powder? Is the mixed tocopherol product good or single? If you are not fully aware of these issues, then you may not be familiar with natural vitamin E as you might think.

First knowledge of natural vitamin E

Natural vitamin E is widely found in plant tissues, especially in oil seeds, grains, and nuts. Vegetable oils such as wheat germ, corn, sunflower seeds and soybean oil are rich sources of vitamin E. Therefore, industrial production of natural vitamin E is generally obtained by extracting and concentrating vegetable oil deodorized distillate. Since animals and humans cannot synthesize tocopherols themselves, they can only be taken from the outside world. Vitamin E is also widely used in food processing, medicine, health care products, cosmetics, feed and other fields due to its anti-oxidation, anti-aging, and fertility and immunity.

In fact, vitamin E is not a single compound, but a mixture of fertility-related, structurally similar compounds. Because the molecule contains a phenolic hydroxyl group, it is also known as tocopherol. Natural vitamin E is divided into tocopherol and tocotrienol, a total of 8 compounds, namely α, β, γ, δ tocopherol and α, β, γ, δ fertility tocopherol, the structural difference between the two is the benzene ring The number of methyl groups and the number of unsaturated double bonds on the aliphatic chain. In terms of in vivo biological activity, α>β>γ>δ, but the antioxidant activity in vitro is just the opposite, α<β<γ<δ. Therefore, if natural vitamin E is used as a Food Antioxidant, the mixed tocopherol having four structures of α, β, γ, and δ has the best oxidation resistance.

The health effects of vitamin E are mainly reflected in two aspects: First, promote the gonad cells of the anterior pituitary gland, increase the number of follicles, increase the number of luteal cells, enhance the secretion of progesterone, promote the production of sperm and enhance its vitality. The second is to have an antioxidant effect. In the body, it can protect red blood cells and other easily oxidized substances from oxidation, thus ensuring oxygen supply to various tissues and organs. In addition, it has good medical value in many aspects such as arteriosclerosis, infertility in women, menstrual disorders, endocrine function decline, muscle atrophy, anemia, brain softening, liver disease and many other aspects.

Breaking the "stereotype" of fat-soluble vitamins

In the past, when it comes to vitamin E, everyone first thought of fat-soluble vitamins, so they worried that excessive intake would cause safety problems. But in fact, vitamin E is recognized as a fat-soluble vitamin that does not have excess disease. It usually accumulates in subcutaneous fat, liver, etc., which have strong storage capacity. When there is excess, it will become tocopherolactone excreted in the urine, or discharged through the sebaceous glands together with sweat.

When it comes to fat-soluble vitamins, there is also a stereotype that people have limited application. However, according to Fengyi Chunzhi Biotechnology (Jiangsu) Co., Ltd., both tocopherol monomers and mixed tocopherols can be used as powders, such as mixed tocopherol powder, d-α tocopheryl acetate powder, d-α succinic acid. Tocopherol can be used in solid beverages, tablets, premixes and other products. The mixed tocopherol powder is generally used as a food antioxidant, d-α tocopheryl acetate powder is mostly used for infant formula powder and solid beverage, and d-α succinic acid tocopherol is mostly used for pressing tablet type health food or dietary supplement. .

Natural vitamin E has become mainstream

Vitamin E is derived from its source of synthetic vitamin E and natural vitamin E. Natural vitamin E is a physiologically active right-handed body, ie, d-type; and synthetic products are racemic, ie, d-type and l-type. The mixture, therefore, the bioactivity of natural vitamin E is 1.5 - 2 times that of the synthetic product, and the bioabsorbability is also higher than the synthetic product and has better food safety. Natural vitamin E is superior to synthetic vitamin E in both physiological activity and antioxidant capacity, and natural vitamin E has no toxic side effects on human body. The safety of long-term use is much higher than that of synthetic vitamin E. Currently, synthetic antioxidants have been banned in countries such as Europe, Korea and Japan. In addition, natural vitamin E as a food antioxidant is also in line with consumers' pursuit of a more natural, green and healthy green label trend, friendly logo; with phospholipids, β-carotene, rosemary, etc., can also play a synergistic effect To enhance the purpose of antioxidant effects.

The “2017-2022 China Vitamin E Industry Market Prospects and Investment Opportunities Research Report” published by the China Business Research Institute shows that at present, the application of natural vitamin E in dietary supplements accounts for nearly 50% of the entire market, despite recent years. China's natural vitamin E development speed is faster, but the per capita consumption of natural vitamin E in China is far lower than the world average, and the domestic potential market is huge. As one of the world's largest natural vitamin E production bases, Fengyi Chunzhi Biotechnology (Jiangsu) Co., Ltd. uses high-quality soybean oil deodorized distillate as raw material, through the introduction of advanced extraction crystallization technology and molecular distillation technology and advanced production equipment. Developed a variety of natural vitamin E oil, natural vitamin E powder, plant sterol and other products, relying on the rich raw material advantages of its parent company Yihai Kerry Group and the strong technical support of Fengyi Global R&D Center. Customers and consumers provide quality vitamin E and phytosterol products with reliable quality and high health benefits. To meet the new wave of growth in demand for natural vitamin E in the pan-food and health industries in the future.

Other supplements

Feed Additives are divided into microbial feed additives and Chinese herbal feed additives. Among them, microbial feed additive is a kind of microbial products that replace or balance one or more strains in animal ecosystem. In a narrow sense, it is a kind of microbial products that can stimulate the reproduction and growth of beneficial bacteria while resisting the growth of harmful bacteria. Microbial feed additives containing a large amount of beneficial bacteria (active lactobacillus, bifidobacterium, bacillus), compound enzyme, chelating peptide, mildew remover, etc., as the inside of livestock and poultry feed, can rapid reproduction, on the one hand, in bacterial metabolites and gut endotoxin inhibits the growth of other harmful flora, on the other hand, it formed the normal microbial flora in the host, Synthesize the main vitamins for the host, provide nutrition and prevent the invasion of pathogenic bacteria.


There are many different feed additives in category. There are vitamins, amino acides, antibiotics, Trace elements,Buffer feed, flavor agents, Hormonal additives, herbal additives etc.
