Tokotrienol
Tokotrienoli su članovi familije vitamia E,[1] koji je esencijalan za telo. Vitamin E se sastoji od čeriri tokoferola (alfa, beta, gama, delta) i četiri tokotrienola (alfa, beta, gama, delta).[2] Male razlike između tokotrienola i tokoferola leže u nezasićenom bočnom lancu. Te farnezil izoprenoidne strukture sadrže tri dvostruke veze.[3][4] Tokotrienoli se prirodno javljaju u biljnim uljima, pšeničnim klicama, ječmu, sorenoji, i pojedinim tipovima oraha i žitarica. Ova varijanta vitamina E se tipično javlja samo u malim količinama u prirodi.[5]
