Happy New Year !

There is some evidence that vitamin E help in reversing the process
of arteriosclerosis. In many parts of the world people above the
age of 40 take 400 IU of this vit. daily without prescription. Since
vit E is fat soluble the pssibility of toxicity is there. Is anyone
aware of studies about the safety of such a regimen?
