Abstract
A source of δ-tocotrienol and/or-tocopherol acts synergistically with an antioxidant source comprising polyphenols, to effect suppression of LDL oxidation in serum. The combination of these two antioxidant sources has wide-ranging applications in treatment of medical conditions arising from free radical generation, including arteriosclerosis and cancer.
