Tocos is derived from the Bran of Organically Grown Brown Rice. Bran is the powerhouse of the sprouting rice and contains all the nutrients required for the rice in early development and growth. Tocos is most famous as a super-rich source of fat-soluble natural vitamin E and is widely recognized as being exceptional for connective tissue and skin. Vitamin E is also important for healthy muscle function. Sun Potion Tocos is a natural product and the Vitamin E comes straight from the rice, unlike most Vitamin E supplements (which are most often synthesized from Soy Beans.) Tocos (Rice Bran Solubles) is an incredible superfood and creamy addition to any healthy recipe. Bio-Available Source of Vitamin E May Promote Healthy Skin and Connective Tissues May Facilitate the removal of toxins from the body The varieties of Tocopheranols and Tocotrienols in this batch of Tocos contain naturally occurring Vitamin A (Beta Carotene), Vitamin B1 (Thiamin), Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin), Vitamin B3 (Niacin), Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic Acid), Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine), Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid), Vitamin E, Folic Acid, Biotin, Choline, and Inositol.

Research studies suggest that Vitamin E has numerous health benefits. Vitamin E is thought to play a role in preventing atherosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases (heart disease and stroke) due to its effects on a number of steps in the development of atherosclerosis (e.g. inhibition of LDL oxidation, inhibition of smooth muscle cell proliferation, inhibition of platelet adhesion, aggregation and platelet release reaction). Recent studies suggest that vitamin E enhances immunity in the elderly and that supplementation with vitamin E lowers the risk of respiratory tract infections, particularly the common cold. There is a great deal of research underway investigating the role of Vitamin E in protecting against outside pollution and lowering the risk of cancer.
