Water-soluble vitamin E with tocopherols and tocotrienols
Yasoo Health, the world's leading authority in vitamin E research and formulation, introduces Aqua-E®, a new water soluble complete vitamin E with tocopherols and tocotrienols. This unique patented supplement is specially formulated under cGMP.
Aqua-E is specially formulated for enhanced absorption. It was designed to help meet the needs of people who have difficulty absorbing vitamin E due to diseases associated with malabsorption such as cholestasis, cystic fibrosis, Crohn's and ulcerative colitis (IBD), alcoholic hepatitis, other liver diseases and AIDS. It is important to note that malabsorption or deficiency also occurs in the elderly and with other serious disease conditions (autism) and with some drug therapies.
The benefits of Aqua E
- Aqua-E is the first dietary supplement that supplies the complete vitamin E family of tocopherols plus tocotrienols in a micellar, water-soluble format that is ready for absorption.
- Aqua-E forms micelles which enable absorption of lipophilic vitamin E in the body, even when the liver, pancreas and the digestive system do not function normally.
- Aqua-E is formulated with TPGS (d-alpha-tocopheryl polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate) to maximize absorption.
- Aqua-E is odorless and has a neutral taste. It mixes easily with most beverages and water. Dosing can be adjusted to meet the needs of children and those with special needs.
- Aqua-E is casein free & gluten free (CF/GF) and is free of animal products, yeast, wheat, added colors or flavors, sweeteners and salt. It is suitable for vegetarians.
- Aqua-E is produced under cGMP, the highest standard of manufacturing quality.
Who should take Aqua-E®
Aqua-E is suitable for use by vegetarians and children or adults that have difficulty swallowing pills.
Many medical conditions can cause malabsorption of fat-soluble vitamins and nutrients. Aqua-E® may aid in enhancing absorption of vitamin E in:
Liver and pancreatic insufficiency
- Cholestasis
- Cystic fibrosis
- Chronic pancreatitis
- Other liver diseases (including hepatitis)
Gastrointestinal diseases
- Inflammatory bowel disease
- Short bowel syndrome
- Infectious diseases of the gut (HIV/AIDS and others)
- Irritable bowel syndrome
- Bariatric surgery
- Celiac disease
Defects in the transport of vitamin E
- Abetalipoproteinemia
- Ataxia with vitamin E deficiency, or familial isolated vitamin E deficiency
- Friedreich ataxia
Aqua-E is also a convenient vitamin E supplement for conditions which may not be directly related to malabsorption. These may include people who have difficulty swallowing softgels due to their age or disease conditions and also conditions that may cause diarrhea and/or loss of appetite.
Supporting Data
Data from a clinical study with cystic fibrosis patients presented at the 2005 North American Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition show that Aqua-E produced a marked and statistically significant increase in the absorption of the gamma-tocopherol form of vitamin E in malabsorbing cystic fibrosis patients as compared to an oil-based softgel formulation. Aqua-E produces an increase in blood levels (AUC-area under the curve) of the tocopherols that ranged from 2 to 4 times higher than an equal amount of the oil-based vitamin E.
