Another phoney Vitamin E put-down.
Don't be misled.
It's all part of the Vitamin Wars

CRN criticizes vitamin E dosage report
 
 
 
 
 
 
7/21/2005 - A report published in the Annals of Internal Medicine this week has come in for criticism from the Council for Responsible Nutrition, which says it was based on a flawed
study,  reports Jess Halliday.
The report, which NutraIngredients-USA.com covered on Tuesday, claimed that 11.3 percent of survey respondents consume more than 400 IU a day from vitamins, minerals or other dietary supplements.

“If people who consume 400IU or greater of vitamin E per day are indeed at increased risk for premature death, a sizeable percentage of US adults fall into this risk group,” wrote the authors, led by Earl Ford of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

But the CRN disputed the validity of Miller’s analysis and,
by extension, find fault with the Ford report.
