Altered Properties of Neurons and Astrocytes and the Effects of Food Components in Stroke-Prone Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats
In this study, we obtained information using PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Web of Science. We searched for the functions of neurons and astrocytes and the molecular mechanism of ischemic stroke induction. We summarized the recent literature on the underlying mechanisms of stroke onset in SHRSP and the alleviating effects of typical food-derived phytochemical components. Neuronal death in SHRSP is induced by hypoxia-reoxygenation, suggesting the involvement of oxidative stress. Furthermore, the production of lactate, l-serine, and glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor in SHRSP-derived astrocytes was reduced compared with...

Vitamin E supplementation (alone or with other antioxidants) and stroke: a meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Supplementation with vitamin E alone is not associated with stroke reduction. Instead, supplementation of vitamin E with other antioxidants reduces the incidence of ischemic stroke but increases the risk of hemorrhagic stroke, cancelling any beneficial effect derived. Thus, vitamin E is not recommended in stroke prevention.SYSTEMATIC REVIEW REGISTRATION: PROSPERO registration no. CRD42022258259.PMID:37698992 | DOI:10.1093/nutrit/nuad114

Vitamin E is ineffective in preventing stroke
Stroke is a leading cause of death and long-term disability worldwide. Vitamin E (tocopherol) is an antioxidant which may protect against atherogenesis by acting as a scavenger of free radicals with subsequent reduced oxidation of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and several other favourable effects on plaque stability, platelet aggregation and tendency to thrombosis. However, a recent meta-analysis of 13 randomised controlled trials (166 282 participants) showed that, compared with placebo, vitamin E supplementation does not significantly prevent stroke of any type (RR 1.01; 95% CI 0.96 to 1.07).1 The statistical quest...

Therapeutic Effects of Pretreatment with Tocovid on Oxidative Stress in Postischemic Mice Brain
Dietary supplement is an attempt to reduce the risk of ischemic stroke in high-risk population. A new mixed vitamin E-Tocovid that mainly contains tocotrienols other than tocopherol, attenuated the progression of white matter lesions by oral in humans. However, the effect of Tocovid on ischemic stroke has not been examined. In the present study, we assessed the therapeutic effects of Tocovid pretreatment on transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO) in mice.

Stroke warning: Overdosing on this supplement could cause brain bleeding
SUPPLEMENTS are widely used to boost a healthy diet, and vitamin E is often taken for its antioxidant benefits. However, in excess it can lead to a haemorrhagic stroke.

Neuroprotective Effects of Tocovid Pretreatment in a Mouse Stroke Model
Tocovid is a new combination of tocotrienols and tocopherol, both of which are neuroprotective agents for preventing cerebral infarction in mice. However, the effects of tocovid on anti-inflammation in ischemic model remain elusive. In the present study, we assessed the effects of Tocovid pretreatment on anti-inflammatory effects after transient middle cerebral occlusion (tMCAO) in mice.

This Vitamin Can Save Your Brain
Your brain has amazing abilities. And it can heal itself.
That’s not something you’re likely to hear from mainstream medicine — especially if you or a loved one suffer from the effects of stroke, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s or another form of dementia.
Here at the Sears Institute for Anti-Aging Medicine, I’ve seen many people with brain damage. And, sadly, most have been deemed “hopeless” by so-called medical experts.
But I can tell you there is nothing hopeless about dementia — no matter what its cause. With the right nutrients, there are times when brain damage can be reversed.
And now recent research from...

Effects of vitamin E on neurodegenerative diseases: an update
Acta Neurobiol Exp (Wars). 2021;81(1):21-33. doi: 10.21307/ane-2021-003.ABSTRACTVitamin E deficiency is associated with many neurological problems. Although the mechanisms of vitamin E action in neurodegenerative diseases are not clear, there are many possible mechanisms. Examples of such mechanisms are the protective effects of vitamin E against oxidative stress damage and its suppressive role in the expression of many genes involved in the development of neurodegeneration. Many studies have evaluated the relationship between vitamin E intake or vitamin E levels in body fluids and neurodegenerative diseases. Some studies ...
