oxygen is used efficiently in the body. Vitamin E is stored in
the liver, fatty tissues, heart, muscles, testes, uterus,
adrenal and pituitary glands. It is only stored in the body for
a short time - 60-70% of daily intakes are excreted from the
body each day in faeces. Vitamin E is unstable to UV light, but
is relatively stable to heat, acid and alkali, especially in the
absence of oxygen. The presence of selenium increase vitamin
E's potency.
