The finely ground food may be returned to the rumen for further work by the microorganisms or, if the particles are small enough, it will pass down a special groove in the wall of the oesophagus straight into the omasum.

Of the many different forms of vitamin E, γ-tocopherol is the most common form found in the North American diet. γ-Tocopherol can be found in corn oil, soybean oil, margarine, and dressings. α-tocopherol, the most biologically active form of vitamin E, is the second-most common form of vitamin E in the diet.

Fat-soluble vitamins are absorbed through the intestinal tract with the help of lipids (fats). Because they are more likely to accumulate in the body, they are more likely to lead to hypervitaminosis than are water-soluble vitamins.

Remember, it is the combination of antioxidants and other nutrients in healthy foods that is beneficial. In this section, we will review how particular antioxidants function in the body, learn how they work together to protect the body against free ra

A couple of things to keep in mind about Vitamin C levels in food - cooking at high temperature for long periods of time and excessive exposure to oxygen (such as when there is only a little orange juice left in a large carton) destroys vitamin C.

There are concerns regarding safe dosage and the effect of high levels of Se on diabetes risk. Supplementation is noted to benefit adults with low baseline Se levels (< 50µg/d), while emerging evidence suggests those with plasma levels between 80-120ng/mL may also see reduced cancer risk.
