Tocopheryl Acetate
Tocopheryl acetate is a form of vitamin E, a natural skin-conditioning agent and antioxidant.
It is the ester of acetic acid and tocopherol and is often used as an alternative to pure tocopherol because it is considered more stable and less acidic.
As an antioxidant superstar, vitamin E is one of the most well-researched antioxidants. It is available in eight different forms, which can be extracted from nature or synthetically produced.
When the vitamin E molecule is derived form natural sources, it is preceded by a "d" prefix when
it is created synthetically, this is indicated by a "dl" prefix.
Though all members of the vitamin E family are fat-soluble, tocopherol is the most bioavailable, and thus the most readily absorbed by the body. Tocotrienols, comprised of both tocopherols and tocotrienols, are the most complete form of vitamin E.
