Health for All says
As people pay more and more attention to health, the importance of vitamins has gradually attracted the attention of the majority of women. As an important antioxidant, vitamin E is believed to play an important role in the maintenance of women's health. Especially for women who have entered the first stage of life, insisting on the right amount of vitamin E every day can not only help them maintain their vitality and youthfulness, but also bring many benefits. Below, I will combine the theories of traditional Chinese medicine and ancient and modern prescriptions to introduce the three benefits of vitamin E in detail.
First of all, vitamin E helps to slow down aging. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that aging is caused by a variety of factors such as the decline of qi and blood function, blockage of meridians, etc. Vitamin E has a significant antioxidant effect, which can scavenge free radicals and reduce oxidative damage to cells, thereby delaying the aging process of cells and tissues. In ancient times, there was a famous formula called "Yangyan Yansan San", the main ingredient of which included vitamin E. Modern scientific research has also confirmed that vitamin E intake can inhibit the lipid peroxidation reaction in **, reduce the occurrence of sagging and wrinkles, and keep the skin young and smooth.
Secondly, vitamin E helps regulate endocrine. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that endocrine disorders are one of the important causes of various physical problems in women. Vitamin E can promote ovarian function and regulate the balance of the female endocrine system, thereby alleviating problems such as irregular menstruation, menstrual pain and menopausal discomfort. Vitamin E-rich herbs, such as angelica, yam, etc., are often added to the prescriptions commonly used in famous Chinese medicine cases in ancient times to regulate women's endocrine function. Some studies have also shown that moderate vitamin E intake can reduce estrogen levels and prevent the occurrence of breast and endometrial cancer.
Finally, vitamin E also has the effect of promoting blood circulation. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that smooth blood circulation is essential for women's health. Vitamin E can promote the dilation of blood vessels, improve blood circulation, inhibit platelet clotting, prevent blood clotting, and reduce the formation of blood clots. In ancient medicines, vitamin E-rich ingredients such as green peel and peanuts were often added to the medicines that replenished and invigorated the blood. Modern scientific research has also found that moderate vitamin E intake can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease and prevent hypertension and arteriosclerosis.
In summary, vitamin E plays an important role in women's physical health. By slowing down aging, regulating endocrine and promoting blood circulation, the benefits of vitamin E cannot be overlooked. Therefore, it is recommended that every woman, especially those over the age of 25, insist on a moderate intake of vitamin E-rich foods every day, such as vegetable oils, nuts, legumes, etc., to maintain the health and vitality of the body.
