Tocopherol is a methylated phenolic compound which acts as a potent antioxidant and is present in many food products. Its antioxidant properties are attributed to its ability to scavenge loose electrons. These free radicals are damaging molecules that can cause oxidative damage to cells. The antioxidants protect the cell membranes and other important biological structures from the effects of these free radicals. In addition to its powerful antioxidant activities, tocopherols also act as chemopreventive agents, meaning they may inhibit the growth of certain cancers.
